A TEENAGE dancer from the North-East and her Welsh partner are looking for sponsorship following a championship win.
Victoria Carruthers, 15, and Lee Penaluna, 17, became the British under-21 classical sequence champions at the Winter Gardens, Blackpool.
However, because they live so far apart, they have to travel all over the country for contests and they also travel to train together.
Victoria, from West Cornforth, County Durham, is also studying for her GCSEs at Spennymoor Comprehensive.
Her father, Alan, said: "The young couple are delighted with their success and are now hoping that some local firms or businesses may come forward with sponsorship to aid them with the ever-increasing costs of this sport."
