As Mayor of Ferryhill, I have chosen to support one local charity throughout my year in office and I am delighted to announce that I will be raising funds for Bright Futures Ferryhill CIC.

Bright Futures does outstanding work across our community, supporting people of all ages. From their free youth club and community pantry to their school holiday activities, they provide valuable services that make a real difference to local families and residents.

Throughout the year, I will be hosting a range of events and fundraising activities to help support their important work.

Any donation, no matter the size, will be greatly appreciated and will go a long way towards helping this fantastic local charity continue to serve our community.

Thank you for your support.
