Grant donation for young people

The Youth Club at Vallance has been given a Grant from The Vintners’ Company. The grant will go towards the costs of its regular 3 nights a week diversionary activities for young people in Whitechapel. The club caters for boys and girls 8 to 19 years old. Vallance chairperson Shuhel Ahmed said “We are very grateful to The Vintners’ Company for their generosity, currently our programmes which include the SEN Health Development project, Volunteers project and Community Sports Project have around 850 members. Not only does this encourage young people to live healthy lifestyles and have something to look forward to after school and weekends, but it also keeps them away from the streets and potential trouble”.
