A YOUNG man from Harlow wanted to cheer everyone up so he decorated his front wall.

The plan was for George and his brothers to chalk each individual brick at the front of their house in The Dashes a different colour. The initial plan was for Passmores Academy student George, aged thirteen, to be helped by his two brothers but they soon “left it to the expert”.

Dedicated George did not give up and completed the task. Mum Laura is very proud and says neighbours and people such as delivery drivers remark how wonderful it looks.

Laura added: “When the world is miserable you throw colour at it to brighten it up”.
