Last night (Monday 29th April) The Bobby Ball Foundation travelled to Warton to visit Streetwise with Elaine and Gerry Gregoire. Elaine and Gerry are two amazing people who, together with their dedicated team, do an incredible job with the young people in our area.
A Spokesperson for the Bobby Ball Foundation said, ‘It was an absolutely pleasure to meet some of the young people that were at the Youth Club last night and present Gerry and Elaine with a cheque of £2,500 on behalf of the Bobby Ball Foundation.
The Foundation are pleased to support young people and believe that every youngster should have a chance to blossom, to be themselves, to find space, to enjoy who they are, and we know that Streetwise really encourage people to be the best person they can possibly be.’
