The Mayor praised Noel and the entire project for their positive impact on the local community. He said: “It was a genuine pleasure to welcome Noel Mulgrew and representatives from the Tuned In Project to the Guildhall today. Noel's victory at the Foyle Rumble 2 was a fantastic achievement and a testament to his dedication and hard work. The Tuned In Project does incredibly important work in our city and district, offering a positive outlet and building confidence among young people. He is an inspiration to many, and I wish him and the entire team continued success.”
