Story

I am dancing in this years Strictly St Rocco's event taking place on Sunday 10th December. I will be learning to dance at Cadmans Dance School and performing in front of 400 people at Nunsmere Hall in December. 

I am the granddaughter of Brenda Shaw, a local Warrington artist who dedicated the last 11 years of her life raising donations for the amazing St Rocco's using her skills as a painter to create the hospices calanders of old and new Warrington. 

We sadly lost our wonderful grandma to a long battle of leukaemia in 2009, my grandma spent her final days in the hospice its self. St Rocco's has a huge part of our heart as a family to which I will be dedicating my dance to her.  

Please support me with this challenge by donating what you can. Your donations will help motivate me to get onto the dance floor, and all the money raised will help the hospice continue its amazing care for the Warrington community. Thank you.
