“The opportunities and experiences, confidence and self worth youngsters gain from being a part of Skool Of Street can be extended through regular training from FY Wingz.
“We need local bussiness or individuals to help us by sponsoring a youngster and giving them a real chance to dance.”
Skool of Street was established in 2013 to offer summer holiday skills workshops in the community.
