David Ruffley will be visiting Stowmarket High School on Friday, 2 April to present sixth former, Gareth Snell, with the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Award. This prestigious award recognises Gareth's outstanding achievement in making a 'real difference to his community and his school'.
As well as presenting the award David will also be speaking to members of the Sixth Form following on from their recent visit to the House of Commons.
David said: 'I am delighted to be presenting Gareth Snell with this prestigious award. It is good to see young people participating in community and school activities that make a real difference to people's lives. I also congratulate him on becoming a Member of the Youth Parliament and wish him well during his term of office. It is a great achievement both for Gareth and Stowmarket High School. It reflects the ethos of Stowmarket High School in promoting community and civic values.
I regularly visit Stowmarket High School to speak to the students on democracy and citizenship and to answer their wide ranging questions. I am always impressed by their interest and knowledge of the subject.'
