The Ergro team have always been keen contributors to local community causes, particularly in the support of youth organisations.
Yesterday, we were very excited to welcome some of the staff and kids from Youth Unity Dartford, a locally based hub that offers sessions that focus on developing a range of skills, building relationships, and empowering young people to achieve positive outcomes, regardless of their circumstances.
Inspired by the recent Euro football tournament, as well as the recently opened Paris Olympic Games, we wanted to encourage the young people who access these services to be able to play games and excel in various sports whist they are on their summer school holidays. We donated various items of equipment that the hub had identified as being most in need of, including football, tennis, volleyball and table tennis.
Whilst the visitors were with us at our head offices in Dartford, we were also lucky enough to have the opportunity to get a guided tour of their travelling studio bus – a state-of-the-art media studio for the young people to record music, podcasts and also do some gaming.
The work done by the Youth Unity team is essential for helping the harder to reach kids build their confidence and independence during their adolescent years, and we couldn’t be prouder to show them a little support.
