"As someone who was born, raised and educated in this area I am passionate about transforming our community. Hounslow’s Promise is a high quality initiative that, I believe, will make a real difference to the life chances of our children and their families. In such challenging times, we as adults have a duty to support and encourage our young people and ensure that they bristle with hope and optimism for their futures."
