Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!  I hope that in return for my clocking up a few miles in my increasingly achy legs you'll consider parting with a pound or two in support of the Denis Law Legacy Trust.

Denis Law Legacy Trust is a small charity that operates and delivers "free to access" activities and positive destination programmes to young people living in areas of deprivation, regeneration, or hot spots of youth annoyance across Aberdeen City. 

Its Streetsport programme takes place right in the heart of many local communities, helping to create a safe space for young people to thrive and a healthier, closer and safer community for all. 2019 saw over 18,500 participations by young people and as Streetsport prepares to resume sessions again they will need support to do so more than ever. There has been a marked increase in young people reporting mental health concerns and lack of opportunities to be with their friends in safe spaces. Streetsport helps address all this and more and will be the first port of call for many over this year ahead. 

Your support will go directly to supporting young people in Aberdeen and have an instant impact on their wellness, motivation and aspiration levels. It’s been a tough period for everyone, in particular young people. Let’s work together and get them back on track! 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
