Watch talented Germiston dancer in action and help her get to Blackpool

She is a talented young girl and ready to take the dancing world by storm.

The only obstacle in Jessica Silva’s way is funding.

Jessica (11) has qualified to represent South Africa at the Freestyle World Championships, to be held in Blackpool, in the United Kingdom, in June.

However, without the generous help of the community and local businesses, her dream will not become a reality.

Here are two videos of Jessica in action, so you can see for yourself how talented she is.

To help make her dream come true her family is also organising a number of fundraising events.

The first of these is a Bingo Night which is set to take place at the German Club (8-10 Plantation Road, Eastleigh, Edenvale) on March 25.

The event will start at 4pm and there is an entrance fee of R50.

The evening is hosted by Universal Dance Centre, where Jessica trains.

There will be adult’s bingo, children’s bingo, raffles, live entertainment, jumping castles, food and drink on sale and loads of prizes up for grabs.
