The Phelan School of Dance is looking for help to send 7 talented dancers who have been selected to represent Scotland at the Dance World Cup in Barcelona in June 2018. Dance World Cup is the largest, most prestigious competition of its kind in the world and our dancers will perform 13 dances, chosen by a panel of judges from thousands of entries across the country. We are so proud of this achievement and the hard work from these girls to get to world class standard.

We are looking to raise £100 for each dancer to go towards their membership fees and team costume. It's an expensive trip so any assistance at all will be so greatly appreciated.

Heres a little bio written by each of our 7 dancers:
