In the group is Mick Moffatt, back row left, Linda, who is a University Student based here on work placement and Pauline Crabtree, Admin Assistant at the centre. The pupils are from Brooksbank School, who attend Blue Base on Tuesday afternoons on our alternative curriculum programme.

Durham Amateur Rowing Club - DARC PfS Centre
Playing for Success at Durham Amateur Rowing Club will be taking part in the Rowathon organised by Mike Rees-Lee from Bath REC. There will be at least six teams: Durham PfS, Sunderland PfS, Middlesbrough PfS, Hartlepool PfS, Darlington PfS and the winning team will be Durham Rowing Club team!! PfS children will take part. The local MP Roberta Blackman-Woods will be attending for 45 minutes from the start at 10:00am.
The centre has also just agreed to put on another Performing for Success project. It will be a joint project between Spennymoor School, Jack Drum Arts, Whitworth Hall Hotel (Best Western) and the aim is to produce a play based on a historic theme linked to Whitworth Hall (home of Bobby Shafto) which will be performed outdoors in the beautiful grounds of the hotel during the week beginning 24 May. This is currently in the planning stage but they are hoping that County Durham's Music Service will get involved and that some of the students will manage the whole project including liaising with the hotel to put on a special 'theatre dinner' offer.
