I'm taking part in Roy Castle Strictly Ballroom event! James and I have been paired up and given the quickstep. I've never danced ballroom before and the only time I've performed before is parent and child contemporary with my mum! I wanted to take part for a great cause, but also because I knew my family would love to see me dance. Please donate and sponsor me making a fool of myself.

"Working with talented dance teachers and choreographers from Martins Dance School, our incredible learner dancers are paired with social dancers and receive 10 hours of private dance tuition - then it’s practice, practice, practice! On Saturday 15th November, they’ll take to the dance floor at The Adelphi Hotel, Liverpool to perform their routine in front of a live audience in a bid to be crowned King or Queen of the Ballroom and lift the coveted Glitterball Trophy!

Now in our seventh year of partnering with Martins Dance School, this spectacular event has gone from strength to strength - raising a remarkable £228,000 so far! With your support we hope to raise even more."
