A CHOIR girl from Darlington has been awarded a music scholarship.
Twelve-year-old Hannah Lofthouse-Hill, left, has won a choral scholarship to Ripon Cathedral choir school.
The youngster has sung with the All Saints' Church choir for the past four years.
The scholarship will begin immediately and Hannah - who previously attended Carmel School - will move to Ripon.
The Reverend John Dobson, of All Saints' Church, said: "This is a great achievement and we are all delighted for her.
"Hannah has been a valuable member of the choir here at All Saints', but to see her go on to a cathedral choir is fantastic, not only for Hannah and her family, but for our church too."
