Mark Ralph of The <strong>Gateshead</strong><br />
<strong>Housing</strong> <strong>Company</strong> joins local<br />
teenagers at one of the Interface<br />
Project health sessions.<br />
Healthy future lies ahead<br />
A health project for young people<br />
in east <strong>Gateshead</strong> has been<br />
boosted with funding from the<br />
housing company and its partners.<br />
The ‘Interface Project’ at Brandling<br />
Hall Community Centre, Felling will<br />
use the £5,000 grant to train young<br />
people to educate others in the<br />
area.<br />
Over 200 young people will take<br />
part in workshops led by trained<br />
youngsters who will talk about<br />
health issues.<br />
It is hoped the project will help to<br />
reduce antisocial behaviour, teenage<br />
pregnancies and alcohol abuse in<br />
and around the Felling area.<br />
Mark Ralph of the housing<br />
company’s Felling office, said: “We<br />
wish every success to the young<br />
people who will spread the good<br />
health message to others in the<br />
Felling area.”<br />
Funding came from the housing<br />
company’s Community Fund,<br />
which is also supported by<br />
<strong>Gateshead</strong> Council and Mears.<br />
