A troupe of Watford dancers performed to crowds in The Harlequin and raised hundreds of pounds for a cancer charity.
Members of the Breakout Dance Company performed a danceathon in the shopping centre on Saturday afternoon (February 23) and raised £332 for Cancer Research UK.
And although they didn’t manage to match last year’s £700 total, organiser Vicki Shepard said the performance was an enjoyable one.
She said: "It was really, really good and everyone had a good time.
"We didn’t raise as much as we hoped but we got a lot of good feedback.
"We also got a lot of the public involved and did a dance class and even did the Harlem Shake.
"It was such good fun and we would love to do it again in the future."
