What an incredible afternoon we had on Saturday at the inaugural Thames View Youth Talent Show!
This event meant a great deal to me. While canvassing during the by-election, I met a young lady who spoke about creating opportunities for young people to showcase their talents. I made her a promise, that if elected, I would make this happen, and I’m proud this event was part of delivering on that promise.
It was a pleasure to host and present awards alongside AJ Hasstrup & Sharon White, celebrating the amazing talent in our community. The courage and creativity shown by every young person on stage was truly inspiring.
Congratulations to our winners:
🥇 Calvin
🥈 Sunnat
🥉 Darren
Thank you to everyone who supported this event, including Barking Sports 4 Change, JDS – Striving for Excellence, One Room and Future Molds, for their continuous amazing work with young people.
This is community spirit in action
Here’s to many more opportunities for our young people to shine
