“Plus Charlotte Smith and Lucy Fairchild who attend the Louise Brown Scholarship classes in York with the Royal Academy of Dance. All of these classes are awarded after a tough audition process and are attended by aspiring dancers from across the wider region.”
Jo continued: “I’m very proud of them all. They have done very will so they deserve this recognition for everything they have put in.”
“As they progress through the levels it gets hard and takes commitment. Some of these girls want to dance for a career so this is a great route for them to take.”
