Online Editor: Matthew Hinchliffe

The High Schools Street Dance Championships has teemed up with Beat Bullying empowering thousands of young people across England with the confidence to combat bullying at school, in their community and online.

The first of its kind in the country, the collaboration hopes to resonate heavily with young people throughout England. Street dance is the most popular form of Dance in the UK and this innovative partnership will not only promote self-confidence and healthy lifestyle, but will also provide a unique platform for young people to stand up against bullying.

The inter-high school competition will support Beat Bullying by providing various resources including information packs and wristbands at all regional finals, as well as attending the launch alongside Kimberley Wyatt, Chipmunk, George Sampson, Ashley Banjo and Sisco Gomez.

Kimberley said: “I’m supporting UDO because the spark in popularity of dance in the younger generations has been incredible! Dance is such a great way to give kids a sense of accomplishment and self worth. I hope my involvement inspires them to dream big, believe in themselves, and go for it.”
