THESE two young ballet dancers will be taking to the stage tomorrow to help our Hospice 2000 Appeal.

Charlotte Carr and Sophie Hepworth are among over 100 children aged three to 15 who are pupils at the Barbara Taylor School of Dancing, and who will be taking part in the show It's Dance Time.

The show runs at New Earswick Folk Hall tomorrow night and Friday at 7pm.

Barbara Taylor said she had run the shows to help York's St Leonard's Hospice for about the last ten years, adding that her aunt had died of cancer in a hospice in Leeds.

"The hospices do such wonderful work, and I think it's a very worthy cause," she added.

Tickets are £4 and £2 concessions, and can be obtained by calling Barbara on York 765470. Alternatively the tickets can be obtained on the door.
