LORD Williams’s students, Laura and Judith Merry, had a taste of fame recently when they appeared on a Channel Four programme about young British entrepreneurs.
The girls, who are 16 years-old and are both wheelchair users, made it through to the final eight of a competition to find Britain’s brightest up-and-coming business people.
The girls explained: “Our idea is to design clothes for teenagers in wheelchairs. At the moment we are focusing on girls, but we hope to then go onto designing clothes for boys,children and adults.

As part of their prize, Laura and Judi have won a package from SEEDA (South East Economic Development Association), to help them set up a business, including Mentoring, and
