Northumberland girl completes 10-hour danceathon and raises over £3,000 for the NHS

Kitty Oates, a 10-year-old pupil at Whittingham C of E Primary School, was so moved by NHS workers’ dedication during the current crisis she asked her mum, Coco, if she could raise money in some way

Coco, on her fundraising page, admitted: “Initially I thought, oh crikey, but actually I think it it a brilliant idea and I was very touched that she had thought about it herself and made a decision to do her bit to help out.
