Stars of Tomorrow Ball

Local business leaders and Members of Parliament joined Cumberland Council, Cumbria Youth Alliance, and Inspira for a night of glamour to raise money for the newly created Enrichment Fund, which is dedicated to supporting cared-for and care-experienced young people in Cumberland. Currently, the Enrichment Fund stands at £54,000, which will give young people opportunities to do things they may otherwise be unable to without the support of a family network, such as paying for driving lessons so they can reach their workplace or study.

This black-tie event featured speeches from Josh MacAlister, MP for Workington and Whitehaven, Eirini Etoimou from Sellafield and Becky Wolstenholme, CEO of Cumbria Youth Alliance, who all spoke about their commitment to cared-for and care-experienced young people.

Cumbria Youth Alliance holds the Enrichment Fund for care experienced young people, and will be supporting the young people in giving out the fund.

If you want to make a donation to the fund this can be done via our paypal donation or via post:

“We’re delighted to be supporting this fantastic initiative.   “Helping people in our communities to access rewarding and sustainable careers is one of the priorities of our social impact work.   “The Enrichment Fund is a great way of helping young people in care unlock their talent and reach their potential.   “When we broaden opportunities, everyone wins. More young people can get on a path to improved life chances, and businesses are able to recruit from a wider range of talent.”
