A huge CONGRATULATIONS to Debbie Davies for Winning Strictly Cymru Dancing!
Saturday evening the floor was lit, the sequins were shimmering and the Davies's were Dancing the competition out of the Ball Room and bringing home the Gold! TV presenter and one time Strictly contestant Gethin Jones presented the award on the night to the winners.
Well done to our other finalists also, Kelly Anne Wynd & Hannah and Hugh Matthias (who showed terrific flair by performing a lift!). A fantastic achievement by all of you for reaching the final. The event was held in order to raise funds for the 'Joshua Foundation' to help children suffering from terminal cancer. Thanks to this event they have raised approximately £20,000 for the charity!!
Congratulations once again to you all."
18 couples from our site signed up back in February 2010 on a course for Latin Dance Classes and out of those 18, 3 members of staff made it through to the final: Debbie Davies, Hannah Matthias & Kelly Anne Wynd (along with their partners). The final was held in the Vale Hotel (near Cardiff) where their supporters filled 3 tables, all of which went wild once Debbie and Steve were announced the winners. The Joshua Foundation is a charity which makes special wishes come true for children with Terminal Cancer and was set up in memory of Joshua who died of cancer when he was 7 and gave the idea to his mother before he died.
Gethin Jones (Welsh TV Presenter) and Owen Money hosted the evening.
