A former Head Boy at Acklam Grange School – Darren Melroy – submitted an application for a DUCK grant this summer, on behalf of The Meserani Project. We were delighted to hear this month that The Meserani Project has been selected to receive a grant of £1,071.89 This is amazing news, and we are indebted not only to Darren, but also to all students at Durham University who are involved in their charity fundraising events.

It really is heartwarming to know that young people are so able and willing to give up their time to raise money for charities, and we are so grateful that they considered The Meserani Project as worthy recipients of one of their grants. Thank You!
