What a night!
A huge thank you to everyone involved in Strictly Step-by-Step 2025. We were so proud to be there alongside other fantastic local charities:
This year’s event was the second annual charity dance-athon in Darlington, held at the Dolphin Centre to raise funds and awareness for local mental health and support organisations. Five local volunteers were paired with expert dance partners and performed two choreographed routines in front of a sell-out audience. People voted throughout the night to decide the winners, making it a fun, exciting, and meaningful way to support the community. Thanks to everyone’s generosity, each charity received a share of the proceeds.
Congratulations to all the amazing participants who bravely took to the floor, and especially to the winners, Peter and Harriet!
Craig and Ali, you absolutely smashed it! We’re so proud of you for representing Darlington Mind so brilliantly.
And finally, a big thank you to the organisers for putting on such a wonderful evening. Your hard work made it a night to remember!
