Dance Westminster

Dance Westminster

One of your local councillors, Cllr Iain Bott, second from the right arranged a special event to celebrate those with disabilities in the City of Westminster.

The event was called 'Dance Westminster', and saw three auditions across the city where 10 hopefuls were shortlisted and took part in the grand final in January.

Judges included Wayne Sleep OBE, Paralypic athlete Mel Nicholls, and actor and dancer Francesca Mills. There was not a dry eye in the house. We are hoping this becomes an annual event.
