Blackburn with Darwen Youth Zone thanked their patrons for the huge impact they’re helping make at a recent Supper Club event.
Hosted by Trustees Wayne Wild and Andrew Graham MBE, the Supper Club at Mytton Fold served as a platform for connecting business leaders within the Youth Zone’s successful patron network.
Without the support of the Blackburn & Darwen business community, Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone would not be able to open its doors to its 4,000 members. The Supper Club event, sponsored by The Senator Group and hosted at Mytton Fold, was a chance to thank the patrons for their support while also demonstrating the significant impact their contributions have made in transforming and supporting the lives of young people across Blackburn and Darwen.
Mytton Fold is proud to be the partner venue for Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone, providing an essential space for patrons to meet, network and continue to grow in supporting and highlighting the fundamental work that goes on across Blackburn & Darwen, thanks to the initiative.
Wayne Wild said:
“We are proud of our growing patron network, which currently consists of 61 esteemed members. The Supper Club serves as the premier local networking event, bringing together like-minded individuals who share our vision of empowering local young people. By collaborating, we can make a significant impact on the lives of young people in the community.”
