Supporters and endorsers
“It’s great to be supporting The Young Pavement Artists Competition. I was never very good at drawing - and wished it was available when I was at school. It’s unique in the way it embraces children and young people of all ages from different backgrounds and abilities. They are given the opportunity to be freely creative and imaginative with chalk drawing, learn about important issues and have a rewarding experience in helping to raise money for a great charity helping individuals with muscle disease.”
Simon Webbe, RnB singer.
“Pavement paintings that wash away with the rain are the perfect way to represent the endangered species of the world - the survival of some of the world's most charismatic creatures is just as fragile as these images. Draw a tiger, a snow leopard, and a mountain gorilla on the pavement, and you're painting something more valuable than diamonds, and rarer than rain in the desert. I only hope that this competition can make people realise how important these animals are, while raising money for a desperately important cause. I am delighted to be giving my support to the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign’s Young Pavement Artists Competition.”
Steve Backshall, Adverturer & Natural History Presenter
“The Young Pavement Artist Competition is brilliant! It encourages children and young people to have fun with chalk drawing, learn about important issues like endangered species and do their bit to help raise awareness and funds for a great cause to help individuals with muscle disease. I’ve got my chalk ready to get arty….”
