Alliance 4 the Black Country, the organisation representing the
area's growing professional and financial community has joined
forces with the Prince's Trust for a second year.
During 2009, the Alliance strived to support the Trust in a
number of fundraising and promotional activities; this included an
Alliance team completing a grueling physical challenge to raise an
incredible £3,200.00.

To celebrate the partnership, a special event was held at the
West Bromwich Albion Football Ground. The event featured
presentations from two Prince's Trust Ambassadors: Benjamin
Williams and Reuben Bowens, who have both been in trouble with the
Law, but have since sought help from the Prince's Trust to turn
their lives around and use their experiences to help others.
Johnathan Dudley, Chairman of the Alliance said "The Prince of
Wales's Charity has helped more than 575,000 young people since
1976 and supports 100 more each working day.
We are delighted to continue our support for what I consider to
be a great charity.
"Over the next twelve months the Alliance will host series of
fundraising activities and projects to help raise awareness of the
great work the Trust does".
