A BARNSLEY dancer will compete in a ‘champion of champions’ showdown next year after placing first in a Yorkshire competition.
Holly Bedford, 12, from Gold Street, took home first place at the Theatre Dance Council International North and South Yorkshire junior modern championship last week.
Her win, a lyrical solo performance to Celine Dion’s Fly, means she will compete against top dancers from across the country at The Esplanade, in Fleetwood near Blackpool, in January.
Her solo is close to her heart after losing her dad six months ago.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
