KENISA Pratt and Beau Dermott were the winners of this year’s Warrington’s Got Talent competition in front of a packed house at the Parr Hall.
The contest, now in its firth year, was organised by Golden Gates Housing Trust (GGHT) with support from LiveWire Warrington, the Wolves Foundation and University Academy.
The grand final, compered by local radio presenter Pete Pinnington, was the culmination of a year long search for Warrington’s best young entertainers. With 16 finalists taking the stage competition was fierce.
The competition was split into two age categories with 10 year old singer Beau winning in the 5-11 years olds age group and 17 year old singer Kenisa from Longford taking the crown for the 12-19 year olds.
The Deputy Mayor and Mayoress were on hand to present the winners and runners up with their prize money and trophies. GGHT will also be working closely with the winners to provide them with opportunities to further develop their talents.
Speaking at the event, GGHT Chair, Roy Smith said: “It’s wonderful to see all these talented young people performing here tonight. They are all a credit to themselves, their families and Warrington.”
Organisers are already working on next year’s competition and anyone wishing to take part is asked to monitor www.gght.org.uk/wgt for more details or check Warrington’s Got Talent on Facebook: www.facebook.com/GGHTWGTalent and on Twitter @WGTalent.
