The organisation, based in Edison Road, Aylesbury has been running for over ten years and has helped hundreds of young people to develop skills and gain qualifications and confidence to achieve.
Speaking after the visit Val said: ‘What an amazing place. It’s fantastic that so many young people from disadvantaged backgrounds have been given this opportunity to improve their lives, gaining confidence and skills for the future. Well done to them and the team who help run such a valuable community project.‘
