Singer Cheryl Fernandez-Versini (née Cole) recently set up Cheryl’s Trust in partnership with The Prince’s Trust and the beauty has now pledged £2million pounds to get a centre up and running, which will help disadvantaged young people in Newcastle.

The 'I Don't Care' star wants to give back to the people of her hometown and explained that she knows how hard it can be for underprivileged and disadvantaged youth.

She issued a statement about the exciting project and told the press: “I'm proud of where I grew up but I'm only too aware of the challenges that young people face. Opportunities often seem pretty limited and I saw so many friends who had loads of potential fall into a life of alcohol, drugs and crime.”

"Too many young people are wasting their lives away because they feel they have no-one to turn to. My life could have turned out very differently... I know how lucky I am. That's why I am raising money to open the new Centre in Newcastle. I want to give back and help young people who feel like they'll never achieve anything reach their dreams and live a happy life."
