We’re going to the Dance World Cup!

We are KR Dance, a small, local dance school in Hartlepool, and we have been given an incredible opportunity. Twenty four of our young dancers have qualified for the Dance World Cup Finals in Dublin this July, where they will proudly represent Team England on the world stage.

These are ordinary Hartlepool children with big dreams. They have worked tirelessly for this moment, putting in countless hours of training, showing real commitment, passion, and determination.

Qualifying for the Dance World Cup is a huge honour, but it also comes with a very real challenge. The cost of getting each child there runs into thousands of pounds. For many families, this is simply out of reach, and as a dance school we are doing everything we can to help ease that burden.

We are asking for support to help cover just some of the essential costs, including entry fees and uniforms. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a genuine difference and help take some of that weight off these families.

By supporting us, you are not just helping with costs. You are giving these young people the chance to experience something truly special, to represent their town, and to follow their dreams on an international stage.

We are so proud of every single one of them, and so grateful for any help you can offer.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, quick, and secure. Your details are safe, and they will never be shared or used for unwanted emails. It is one of the easiest ways to support these children and help make this once in a lifetime opportunity possible.
