1 in 3 young people in our Borough live in poverty, we have 384 children in care. Disadvantage can often limit achievement of potential.
During our year in office as Mayor and Mayoress of Halton, we will be raising funds to offer bursaries to young people in the Borough to help them overcome financially limited hurdles to help them achieve ambitions. Helping them into higher education or vocational apprenticeships, with the purchase of tools, tech, books, safety kit, even bus fare if necessary to offer them a helping hand on the road to realising their potential - please help us break the cycle and invest in the future talent of the Borough!
The bursary scheme will be administered by The Halton Foundation who have many years experience of supporting people in our Borough and we are delighted to be able to support their efforts further.
You can help by donating to the registered Charity Fund, sponsoring an event, donating a prize to be raffled or auctioned at an event, bringing friends, family & work colleagues to events and generally spreading the word about the events we are holding.
If you would like to get involved as a business to support our ambitious plans, we would love to hear from you and happy to arrange to come and see you for a coffee & a chat to explore further.
