TWO sisters are organising a dance night in March next month which they hope will raise enough money to send three teenagers from a children’s home on holiday.

Former professional dancer Stephanie Roe and Sarah Roe, head of dance at Peterborough Regional College, are working together to put on a memorable evening at the Braza Social Club, March, on May 3.

Stephanie Roe works with vulnerable young people at Break, a Norfolk based charity which has set up a children’s home in March.

She said: “The children’s home has only been open for a year and, together with my sister, we have decided to use our dance backgrounds to put on a show which we hope will enable us to raise enough money to give the young people an opportunity to go on holiday as any other family would.

“The children have had traumatic lives and experienced things that no child should have to endure.

“We are passionate about dance and it would be amazing if we could raise £1,500 for such a great cause.”

The show will showcase the finest dancers in the region, Stephanie said.

She said: “There will be a cabaret involving two Fenland dance schools, Lisa Dickinsons Dance Mania and Sarahs Street Style Dance.

“Peterborough Regional College students will be demonstrating a range of styles from Lyrical Jazz to Commercial and Street Dance.

“They competed at the UDO Regional Street dance Championships where they won their category and have advanced to the World Championships in Glasgow in August.

“Crewz Control, an international award winning Hip Hop company will be opening and closing the cabaret and we also have singers from the West End.”

Stephanie says she has been thrilled with the response of the community to the night.

She said: “Many of the local businesses have supported us through raffle prizes, and everyone is supporting us free of charge which is really bringing the community together.”

Tickets are £7 for adults, £5 for concessions, and are available on 01603 670109
