A budding tennis star from Grays was recently handed a donation of £100.

The Rotary Club of Grays Thurrock presented Lenny Kitoko with a cheque to help him further his tennis career.

The cheque was handed to him by Elaine Stevens, community services chairman from the Rotary Club.

Lenny has a hugely promising tennis career so far and has been playing at all levels, from county and regional, to national and international, and the rotary club are hoping their generous donation could help him on his way to be the next Andy Murray.

Lenny has recently been selected to attend the ATP World Tour Finals in London where he hopes to meet up with current tennis Superstars, and perhaps even get the chance of a friendly game.
