In this heartwarming print captured by Stephen Elliott, we are transported back to the 1990s in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire. The image features Middlesbrough player John Hendrie and the beloved mascot Roary the Lion, joined by a group of enthusiastic youngsters from Sacred Hearts Primary School. It was taken on the memorable day of March 7th, 1995 when they all came together to kick off an important child road safety campaign. The picture exudes joy and camaraderie as Hendrie and Roary engage with the children, their smiles lighting up the frame. Dressed in their football gear, these young fans look up to their heroes with admiration and excitement. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the spirit of sport bringing communities closer together. As part of this campaign, aimed at promoting road safety among children, Hendrie and Roary took on a new role - that of ambassadors for safe practices on our streets. Their presence undoubtedly left a lasting impact on these impressionable minds who were eager to learn from their idols. Stephen Elliott's expert photography skills have preserved this precious moment forever; reminding us not only of Middlesbrough's rich sporting heritage but also highlighting the importance of instilling road safety awareness from an early age.
