ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD Charlie Heslop is looking forward to a dream trip to watch his football idols.

The youngster will be a special guest of Manchester United tomorrow, when the Red Devils face Charlton Athletic.

Charlie, a pupil at Beaumont Hill Special School, in Darlington, suffers from muscular dystrophy and had the trip organised for him by the Caldwell Charitable Trust.

He will get a tour of the club's Old Trafford ground and meet some of the players.

Staff at Beaumont Hill school said Charlie was thrilled at the prospect of meeting his heroes.
