people in our local area aged between 16 and 25 years old, irrespective of
background or ability, delivered by Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service.
During the 12 weeks they are involved in various team building activities and
community work, as well as continually working towards various nationally
recognised qualifications.
Princes Trust Wythenshawe Team 4, independently selected New Dawn Community
Centre, Button Lane, Northern Moor as their project for renovation. The team of
ten, who raised money through a three day car wash, spent 14 days reviving both
the inside and outside of the building. As part of the community challenge the
Team were required to coordinate a final hand over presentation. By arrangement

for a worthwhile cause.
The Team hope to raise enough money to take a group of children with learning
difficulties to Challenge for Change, a team building activity centre in
Manchester.
