Printer-friendly versionSend to friend

Charlie Biddle, 13 years old, is a gymnast at Shard End’s Project Kingfisher Centre and is part of StreetGames and Coca-Cola Great Britain's billboard campaign.

Charlie was chosen for the campaign because of her outstanding commitment to her local StreetGames project and the contribution she has made to StreetGames in her neighbourhood. Over the past five years she has taken an active part in a number of StreetGames sessions including football, kick-boxing and gymnastics, and is now competing regularly in gymnastics competitions.

Charlie said: “Being part of StreetGames has really helped me develop as a person and given me opportunities I wouldn’t otherwise have had. With the confidence StreetGames has helped me develop I hope to one day reach the Olympics with my gymnastics.”
