Craig David is to perform at a JLGB ceremony for graduates of its evolve volunteering programme for young people.

The September event in London will be open to anyone who has completed one of the organisation’s evolve activities, which include the Duke of Edinburgh Award, the Yoni Jesner Award and National Citizen Service. Some 1,000 people are expected.

The R&B star said: "I’m really looking forward to being part of JLGB’s evolve celebration rewarding outstanding contributions made by hundreds of remarkable young volunteers. Can’t wait to see you there.”
