One of the highlight events of the YC B2022 programme, 20 years on from the Manchester 2002 Connecting Communities programme, was to see a collaboration between the Youth Charter, PwC, and the Duke of Edinburgh Award where we hosted 222 young people at the Commonwealth Games. A presentation of Youth Charter scrolls to participants was attended
by: Commonwealth Games President, Dame
Louise Martin; President of Duke of Edinburgh Award Baroness Tanni Grey Thompson; Sir Don and Lady Claire McKinnon; Clare Balding; Chris Murray; Ali Jawad; Michelle Thomas; Diane Modahl; and Mark Lewis Francis.

A group of the young people were also delighted to meet the Vice President of the Commonwealth Games Federation HRH Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, Earl and Countess of Wessex.
