A year ago today we first posted this powerful video with its message being just as powerful today! 🔪❤️‍🩹

Knife Crime is still a growing problem in our local area and as much awareness as possible on the dangers of knife crime is the only way to try and tackle it.

This video on this platform alone reached over 32000 views last year…let’s see if we can reach even more by giving it one more share! 🙌

One life lost, is one too many. 😇

A big thank you to everyone who helped with this project last year. We were so honoured to have been a part of it. 🩷💙

Unbelievably proud to announce that Kitty Rae has been crowned the teen winner at West End Calling this evening! 🎤🎭

To get to the finals of such a HUGE prestigious competition across the whole Country is an incredible achievement but for her to be crowned the winner is next level! 👏🙌🫶

A huge well done Kitty!! Well and truly deserved! So, so proud of you!! 🥰

If you would like to see Kitty Rae do her thing, she will be performing at ADA’s dance show ‘Dancing Through Life’ on the 11th and 12th July at the Forum Theatre Billingham. Kitty last performed a solo for us when she was just 10 years old which was pure magic…you can only imagine how good she is now! 🙌✨

Well done again Kitty Rae! Everyone at ADA are so proud of you! 🩷💙 xXx

7 years ago since we collaborated with County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust and 3 Point Media to bring to life a special tribute to all of our wonderful NHS Nurses for their contribution, dedication and for playing such a vital role in our healthcare. 💙

I was honoured to be asked to choreograph such a special piece for IND2019 and even more honoured that our ADA students were stars in the music video along with nurses from CDDFT.

Can you recognise any of the little faces in the video? Many still come to ADA now including 6 of them currently being part of our Assistant Teacher team. How special! 🩷💙
