NE Youth have been running a shoot for 35 years and the money raised (over £500K) has helped 100’s of young people.

This year’s event was run across two days with 56 teams taking part. With main sponsors Northumberland Estates and Storey Homes, and trap sponsors Bradley Hall Chartered Surveyors and Estate Agents, JR Holland Food Services Limited, R Thornton & Co, Lindisfarne Homes, and The Inn Collection Group. The sun shone all weekend at Hulne Priory in Alnwick and an amazing £62,000 was raised.

Jon Niblo, CEO of NE Youth commented: ‘This has been an incredible two days for our Charity. The generosity of all guests during this very difficult period for local business was overwhelming. So many people played a key role in pulling this event together and on behalf of all of our beneficiaries I would like to a huge thank you. Particularly our main sponsors Story Homes, Northumberland Estates and The Inn Collection Group.’

Rory Wilson, Northumberland Estates CEO, said: “We are proud to support NE Youth again this year. The charity works hard to make a positive difference in the lives of young people across the region and shares many of the same values as Northumberland Estates by acting to bring about positive change in communities throughout the North East.”

Neil Hart, group managing director at Bradley Hall, said: “NE Youth is an incredible charity which we were proud to support this year alongside our clients at The Inn Collection Group.

“Jon and the team delivered a fantastic event which raised a significant amount of money which will undoubtedly change the lives of many young people within our local communities. A big well done to all who were involved and we look forward to the next event.”

The Sunday shoot was in memory of John Shallcross who started the event many years ago and was sorely missed.
