Tell us about your photo
The photo was taken in St Albans. I asked the group and they were happy for me to photograph them. The picture shows the diversity of the area; the people are happy together, playing a game. They look like they are busy and entertained.

What do you love about your local community?
This is a good place. It is near the city but also feels relaxed, like in the countryside – like my people, who are from the countryside.
What does ‘everybody belongs’ mean to you?
I feel like I belong when I can do classes with other people, like English classes. I feel better and learn.
