CEI Solutions Joins Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone Patron Network

Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone has announced CEI Solutions has joined its growing Patron network, providing vital financial support to help the charity continue delivering life-changing opportunities for young people across the borough.

CEI Solutions joins a network of more than 80 like-minded business leaders and organisations who share a commitment to investing in the future of young people and strengthening the local community.

As a Patron, CEI Solutions’ support will contribute towards the core running costs of Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone, helping the charity provide a safe, welcoming and inspiring environment where young people can develop their skills, confidence, health and
aspirations.

The Youth Zone supports thousands of young people every year, providing access to a wide range of activities, including sport, arts, wellbeing, skills development, employability and opportunities to build positive relationships.

Paul Evans, Director at CEI Solutions and a committee member of the B&DYZ Business Development Private Sector board, said: “We are delighted to become a Patron of Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone and to support an organisation that makes such a positive difference to young people across our local community. Investing in young people is an investment in the future of Blackburn and Darwen, and we are proud to play our part.

“The Youth Zone provides young people with opportunities to build confidence, develop new skills and realise their potential. We are also pleased to be joining a network of over 80 like-minded businesses and leaders who share a passion for supporting our community and creating positive opportunities for the next generation.”

Leon Crosby, Chief Executive of Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone, said: “We are delighted to welcome CEI Solutions to our Patron network. The support of local businesses is absolutely vital to the future of the Youth Zone and enables us to continue providing opportunities that can make a lasting difference to young people’s lives.

“CEI Solutions joins a fantastic network of more than 80 businesses that are committed to making a positive difference across Blackburn and Darwen. We are incredibly grateful for their support and look forward to working closely with the team and showing them the impact their investment is having.”

The Youth Zone’s Patron network plays a crucial role in sustaining the charity’s work. Patrons not only provide essential financial support but also become part of a community of businesses committed to helping young people reach their full potential.

Through the network, businesses have opportunities to engage directly with the Youth Zone, meet young people, support events and activities, and connect with other business leaders who share their commitment to the local community.

CEI Solutions’ decision to become a Patron further demonstrates the important role that local businesses can play in creating a brighter future for young people across Blackburn and Darwen.
