Help an inner-city Newcastle stables win a Lottery award

A Newcastle riding school is through to the semi finals of The National Lottery Awards 2010 and needs your votes to get through to the final round.

Stepney Bank Stables, a British Horse Society approved riding school in Byker, is among just ten projects in the country to make it into the semi finals, in the best education project category.

A spokesman for the centre said riding at Stepney Bank Stables is a powerful antidote to anti-social behaviour, crime and exclusion for local children.

Voting closes at midday on Friday 18 June.
