Weston Spirit - Fusion21's nominated charity 2008/09
Image for Weston Spirit - Fusion21's nominated charity 2008/09Weston Spirit works with young people from diverse social and economic backgrounds whose needs are wide-ranging. Some may be vulnerable, disengaged or de-motivated, others may be at risk from antisocial behaviour, exclusion or unemployment while many need support as they make the transition from adolescence to independent adulthood.

So far they've worked with over 79,000 young people across the UK and every year help more than 5,000 young people around the UK, supporting them to overcome their hurdles, find their direction and move forward.

Fusion21, its members, contractors and suppliers will be organising a range of activities over the next 12 months to support Weston Spirit.

Commenting on the partnership, Fusion21 Managing Director Colette McKune said:
"We are pleased to be working so closely with Simon and Weston Spirit. The work they do with young people is phenomenal and is having a huge impact on people's lives and futures.

There are a number of areas where we have much in common and are looking to share ideas and experiences. There are obvious synergies with our own Fusion21 Skills Programme. Simon himself is an inspiration and we're looking forward to the next 12 months."
