Cressida takes on a huge challenge to inspire our young people Cressida is a long term supporter of the Young Creative Awards having completed her challenge for us in 2015, raising thousands of pounds to help us run the awards. From 2.30pm – 6pm on Wednesday 6 September 2017 Cressida will once again be pounding the pedals. This particular date has extra significance as it is on that date 25 years ago that Cressida had a brain haemorrhage resulting in a speech and language disability (Aphasia). She will use her static cycle to pedal for a gruelling three and a half hours attempting to beat her previous best distances. There will be several musical acts that have been involved in the Young Creative Awards over the last few years playing to add their support at the event which will take place outside the Specialty Coffee Shop on Friar Lane and there will be a selection of special cakes and assorted goodies available. Please come along and support Cressida and the Young Creative Awards Check out Cressida’s Facebook event page here: Cressida’s Facebook event and you can donate towards her challenge here: Cressida’s YCA Bike ride...
