Camden and Islington Business Awards - The Access 2 Sports Project Announced As One Of The Official Charities
The Islington Chamber of Commerce has chosen two charities to give part of proceeds from the 2nd annual Camden and Islington Business Awards, "CIBAs" to. While there were many to choose from, the ICoC felt A2S was deserving of honor this year.
Online, July 31, 2012 (Newswire.com) - On November 1st at The Grand Connaught Rooms the Islington Chamber of Commerce and Camden Business Network will be launching its second annual "CIBAs" evening function. The Camden and Islington Business Awards promises to showcase the very best business talent from across these 2 vibrant boroughs. The awards have been established to recognise and celebrate those business owners in Camden and Islington who have successfully grown and maintained their business positioning throughout 2011 and 2012.
Camden and Islington would not be what it is today without the important work carried out by numerous charities throughout the boroughs and therefore The Access 2 Sports Project has been chosen as one of the two official charities which will be supported by proceeds from the CIBAs.
A2S is an inner-city London charity based in Islington but whose work spans across north-east London. Emerging from the Finsbury Park Regeneration area 10 years ago, the charity has a remarkable track record in delivering sports projects, which has created a lasting social legacy in the communities with whom they work.
"We would like to say thank you to the Chamber for making A2S the official charity if the CIBA's. We are extremely proud of our staff and the achievements our young people have made and I know it means a lot to them to be recognised by the wider community for their efforts. For the past 10 years we have been using sports as a tool for community development and have worked with thousands of young people, their successes and testimonies are at the heart of what we do and shapes our own growth and development. Being selected as an official charity is fantastic, it has created a real buzz here and we will harness this momentum to reach even more communities and young people" said Nary Wijerante.
