The team behind hit BBC show DIY SOS have issued a final rallying call for volunteers, as the Big Build heads to Tyneside later this week, with several stars from Strictly Come Dancing taking part in the project.
Long-running series DIY SOS was relaunched as The Big Build in 2010, with presenter Nick Knowles and his team working on life changing large scale challenges throughout the UK, including some special schemes for Children in Need. And this week, Strictly stars led by popular judge Anton du Beke, will descend on Wallsend to transform a derelict building for the True Colours Theatre. The charity is an inclusive theatre school for children and young people in the North East of England, many of whom have additional needs such as autism, ADHD, anxiety disorders, physical and life limiting conditions and various mental health issues.
Strictly pros like Graziano Di Prima, Katya Jones, Luba Mushtuk and Nancy Xu, are all expected to be on site at various points across this week, before Anton is involved with the big reveal at the weekend.
