Letisha & Charlene Educational Awards

The Letisha & Charlene Education Award (LCEA) organisation was established in memory of Charlene Ellis and Letisha Shakespeare, who were innocent victims of a drive-by shooting in January 2003.

The organisation consists of the families of the two girls and representatives from Aston Pride New Deal for Communities, the Birmingham Mail and Birmingham Community Foundation.

Each award offers support for one year for people living in North West Birmingham who are aged 16+ and who need financial help to continue with their education. Awards are up to £2000.

Please Note: current funds have been spent. Application forms will be available to download when a new set of awards are announced.
