ORGANISERS of this year's charity dance extravaganza Strictly Worcestershire are confident of a sell-out with more than 620 tickets already sold.

After its debut in 2014, the glitzy business world fund-raiser will return to the Chateau Impney in Droitwich Spa on Thursday, May 21. Profits will be split between the Worcestershire Breast Unit Campaign and Ladies Fighting Breast Cancer.

The contestant line-up is now complete with eight couples poised to battle it out for the glitterball trophy. Recent recruits are former Worcestershire Ambassadors chairman Granville Orange and Julie Worsfold, Wyre Forest based GPs Dr Simon and Dr Sally Rumley, Bekki Normoyle, director of Angel Hands Childcare and Adrian Harker, supply development controller of Worcester Bosch Logistics, and Premier Places director Julia Williams and Dan Lewis, joint owner of DCL Window Cleaning.

They’ll be joining Free Radio DJ Hursty and recruitment consultant Laura Bligh, Dave and Sue Connellan, directors of Worcester's Mobile Mechanic, Nick Sandy, director of accountants Richards Sandy Partnership, and his wife Julia, tax and trusts manager with law firm Thursfields, and property maintenance expert John Kerr and Debra Hutchinson.

Presenters on the night will be BBC Hereford and Worcester broadcaster Andrew Easton and Caron Steele, who won last year’s competition with husband Mark.

Teresa Green, editorial director of event media partners Chris Green Media, said: “There are less than 100 tickets remaining so we’re urging anyone who wishes to come along to book as soon as possible.” Strictly Worcestershire 2015 is being supported by Sanctuary Group, one of the UK’s leading providers of housing, care and community services, and other event partners include Project Events and Nexus Creative.
