A NORTH-East youngster is to receive a double Harry Potter treat - a signed copy of a book and a trip to see the film.

James Harris, seven, of Easterside, Middlesbrough, is among seven winners from throughout Britain.

They entered a competition run by The Turner Syndrome Support Society and sponsored by Pharacia, which supplies the National Health Service with growth hormones.

The contest aimed to highlight the achievements of the 3,500 children who take daily injections of the hormones.

The winners will see the Harry Potter film in London's West End on Saturday. They will also have lunch, and be entertained by a magician.
