Bradford dancer Keeley Wright has beaten thousands of hopefuls to play a part in the opening of the Olympics this summer.

The 18-year-old from East Bowling will have to travel to London about 20 times for rehearsals and needs sponsorship to help pay for it.

The first year dance and drama university student said: “It’s going to be a great experience but it’s a great expense too. I couldn’t believe it when I got the e-mail saying I was in.”

Anyone interested in helping with sponsorship can e-mail nickiwright67@hotmail.com.
