Kye's Kick-Off
This match is being played in honour and memory of
Kye Kevin Cunnington. Kye suddenly passed away in December last year from leukaemia, after a year long battle with Ewing Sarcoma. He battled through until the end with a positive attitude for his future, a future which he absolutely deserved.
This match is gathering money and support for the Teenage Cancer Trust who support families in similar situations to Kye’s. Not only this, this match will be a great way to remember and honour the fierce and inspiring soul that Kye was.
Please give what you can and show your support for both of our brilliant teams.

Building Self-Belief CIO supported North Durham Academy to create a beautiful Community Wellbeing Garden. The aim was to create a wellbeing space that is both accessible and welcoming to the school and the community. As well as a space that will help to increase biodiversity in the area. We hoped to inspire young people to engage more with their environment as well as create a space they can be proud of.
