University Of Newcastle Dance Society's Quiz Night- Another Successful Fundraiser!!
Working with our university interns is always a delight and we are particularly proud when they stay with us and continue to support the charity. As part of her final year at the university, in her position as Welfare Officer Aimee Wager nominated Building Self-Belief as the University of Newcastle's Dance Society's chosen charity and in her role, she will be organising a series of fundraising events.
Dance Society Quiz Night
Their first charity event was the quiz night - and what a massive success it was!
In preparation for the quiz night, Aimee visited a variety of businesses and collected a whole series of fabulous raffle prizes. Plus, she created an engaging and entertaining quiz for the Dance Society to enjoy.
With a paper plane challenge for extra points, who could fail to enjoy the evening?

Empowering Consett’s Youth
Building Self-Belief’s mission as a charity it to empower young people and give them the strategies and the self-belief to take ownership of their lives. Our mission is to “Build Stronger Communities through Building Self-Belief’ and we feel that a strong Youth Panel is the perfect way to give young people a voice and ensure that they have a say in their own community.

Designing a Steel Statue for Consett
On Tuesday 28th January, we hosted a fundraiser and design session to generate some ideas about what the community want the Ray Lonsdale statue to look like. We were very lucky to have renowned artist Ray Lonsdale with us, who gave a talk about his artistic journey and past designs, and answered all of our questions about his statues and how we should go about creating our own for Consett.
