Act 2 – Jasmine sang beautifully Adele’s “When we were young” to her own piano playing backing track.
Act 3 – Charlotte & Rebecca ballet danced a routine to Ghost.
Act 4 – Hana Jo – played the ukulele and sang two numbers one by Kate Nash and the other by Justin Bieber.
Act 5 –Magician Joe gave a mesmorising magic act that left the audience spellbound.
Act 6 – Garstang Taekwondo gave a varied display of martial art routines with ages ranging from 5-53.
After all the acts had performed the audience were invited to vote by placing a card heart in voting boxes. Whilst the votes were being counted everyone enjoyed refreshments and some lovely homemade bakes. The raffle was drawn and then results were announced with first place going to Hana Jo. All acts were presented with thank you certificates and Hana Jo received the CRY’s Got Talent 2017 trophy in memory of Matthew Hesmondhalgh. A total of £514.75 was raised for Matt’s fund which included a generous donation of £100 from the taekwondo team.
