THREE girls are hoping they can raise enough money to compete in the line-dancing Olympics in October.

Darlington friends Amanda Clixby, 12, Amy Maxwell, 13, and Nichola Young, 13, have already danced their way to a number of titles.

Earlier this month, they travelled to Prestatyn, Wales, to compete in the Universal Cup, where they were successful in qualifying for October's event in Lanzarote.

But they need to raise £894 to meet travel costs for the competition.

The girls have also qualified for the Supreme Championships in Blackpool, in May.

Anyone wishing to help sponsor the girls is asked to call (01325) 255354
