Congratulations to Kebba Sanneh for winning the Youth Community Champion Awards at the Glasgow Times Community Champion Awards!
Kebba is a Local Community Impact Leader, a role funded by Athletics Trust Scotland, to coach athletics to children and young people in the East End of Glasgow. The area is amongst the most deprived in Scotland, with 35% of children growing up in poverty. Without sessions like this one, which is run in partnership with our friends at Scottish Athletics and Scottish Sport Futures, many of these children and young people simply wouldn’t have the opportunity to have fun getting active in a safe and supportive environment.
Kebba brings bucket loads of enthusiasm, positivity and kindness to his role and is an excellent role model for the children and young people to look up to in their local community.
Thank you, Kebba, for helping us to transform lives through the power of athletics!
