We put a shout of out for the residents of our Cornfield Cliffe housing project on a Darwen Facebook group and we had footballs delivered within the hour!
A special shout out to Scott Hansekowitsch who donated a new football to the young people in record time, and Tina Shipperbottom who delivered some balls too.
We’re not sure what the final score was, but we know that everyone enjoyed themselves and say thank you for your very kind donations. Every little thing like this makes such a huge difference to our young people.
Without the help of our supporters, we wouldn’t be able to do what we do.
Thank you to all our #NightsafeHeroes.
