A Bedford High Street charity is putting the town on the national map with a basketball event at the O2 in London on May 10th.
Founder Lance Haggith, a former BBC Look East Sports Personality of the Year and Olympic Torch Bearer, is behind the Sports Traider charity which recycles quality sports wear and supports young people via sport into work experience.
He is raising the profile of his Bedford-based charity and the High Street with the event in May.
