I can’t thank you enough for taking the time add your name to the petition, share it to others, and send a clear message to the government that Mary Seacole’s story is of great importance and value to all our children. This is a huge victory which really shows just how much we care that our children can learn from a wide range of historical figures from many backgrounds. Together our efforts have made a fantastic difference -- I cannot thank you enough.
