TWO youngsters were given the chance to see a top band after winning a competition.
Stevie and Hollie Stead, from Oxbridge, in Stockton, entered the competition, held by Stockton Borough Council and Galaxy Radio, after reading The Adventures of The Amazing Boy Called Robbie, a comic commissioned by George Callaghan and Neil Ellison, of the council's road safety team.
The comic highlights the adventures that Robbie has, just by walking to school each day, and shows youngsters it is "cool" to walk.
Stevie and Hollie won the chance to see Busted perform live at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle.
They were taken in VIP transport to and from the event with the Galaxy Radio ground crew.
Mr Callaghan said: "I hope they thoroughly enjoyed their big night out."
