Story

<p>&nbsp;</p> <p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Party in the sky is a one off event which will raise funds for both Dame Kelly Holmes Legacy Trust for their work in Reading and also for the Reading Partnership Board (RPB). DKH Legacy trust<span style="background: white;"><span style="background: white;">&nbsp;wants to create a legacy from her athletics career that would benefit the young and disadvantaged people who look up to, and are inspired by elite sports performers like herself.&nbsp;Having seen firsthand the difference that world class sports performers can make to kids' lives, Dame Kelly set up her own charity, the DKH Legacy Trust. Its mission is to 'create life chances for young people'. Disadvantaged young people who are deprived both socially and economically are in danger of being excluded from higher education, training and employment. DKH Legacy trust wants this to change and ensure a thriving future workforce in the Reading area.</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="text-align: left; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The</span><span><span style="text-align: left; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">&nbsp;</span>Partnership Board<span>&nbsp;</span></span><span style="text-align: left; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">supports and promotes Reading&rsquo;s role in the 2012 London Olympic Games &amp; Paralympic Games and<span>&nbsp;</span></span><span style="text-align: left; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">supports the local community to organise and take part in celebrations for the Her Majesty the Queen&rsquo;s Diamond Jubilee.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> A year-long events programme promises to involve every sector of the community &ndash; from street parties to the Olympic Torch Relay.</span></span></p> </p> <p class="MsoSubtitle" style="margin-left: 35.45pt; text-align: left; tab-stops: list 135.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br></span></p>
