A proud supporter of Blackburn Youth Zone donates £4,500 to support local young people and families across the borough.

Traditionally Trevor Dawson Commercial Property Consultants hold an annual Charity Golf Day in aid of Blackburn Youth Zone. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions in place the local business made a decision to postpone the event. Being that this event is a firm favourite for many individuals across the borough, raising vital funds for the charity; the decision was not taken lightly. Despite disappointment, Trevor Dawson remains committed to supporting their local community. The business recently reached out to Blackburn Youth Zone and have kindly donated £4,500; the average proceeds of the event.
