Over the past 30 years, young people from across our area have been forming teams and spending their summer holidays completing a project to benefit their community as part of Lifestyle.
Sadly, due to the current circumstances and government guidance, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Lifestyle 2020.
But, we are still encouraging young people to be an active part of their community and do something to help someone less fortunate than themselves this summer.
Assistant Chief Constable Paul Anderson said: “A lot has happened over the past few weeks, but one thing that we have seen throughout the uncertainty is a real sense of community, with people going out of their way to look after friends, family and neighbours in need.
“This is exactly what Lifestyle is all about and we know that our Lifestylers will still be looking for ways that they can safely reach out and help those in need, whilst still following the government guidance.
“Whether that is by creating a colourful picture and displaying it on a window to make someone smile, or by calling up an elderly relative for a chat to stop them feeling lonely, we have absolutely no doubt that the young people in our area will be busy doing things to help others.
“We would love to hear about ways that our children and teens are making a difference in this unusual time, so if you are doing something positive please tell us about it on Facebook or Twitter.
“The competition will be back next summer and we look forward to catching up with all our Lifestylers once this is all over.”
