Utility Source stepped in to provide support, helping ensure the dancers can take part in the opportunity they have worked so hard to achieve.

SV Dance Studios offers street dance, commercial dance, acro gymnastics and musical theatre classes for children and young adults, helping young people develop confidence, skills and friendships through performing arts.

Dance teacher Emma explained just how important the sponsorship has been.

"Utility Source has kindly sponsored our dancers. They auditioned for the Dance World Cup in Dublin next year and were successful, but we needed a lot of sponsorship for uniforms, costumes and travel.

"It has been massive. We couldn't have done it without Utility Source. The cost of the kit alone was so much, so we really needed that sponsorship to make sure every dancer could go."

For Utility Source director Dean Pattison, supporting the dance school was an easy decision.

As well as being a local business owner, Dean is also a parent whose daughter has attended SV Dance Studios for several years.

"Giving something back to the local community is really important to us," said Dean.

"This is a dance school that my daughter has attended for the last three or four years, and I've seen firsthand the positive environment they create for young people.

"They've created some fantastic opportunities. I've watched them perform at Disneyland Paris, and more recently, some of the dancers performed at Wembley Arena.

"Now several of them have qualified for the Dance World Cup in Dublin. For us to be able to provide a little bit of sponsorship and help these young people continue to grow, develop and enjoy these experiences is something we're really proud to support."

The sponsorship forms part of Utility Source's wider commitment to supporting local community organisations across South Yorkshire.

Alongside supporting SV Dance Studios, the company also sponsors Young Owls Junior Football Club and supports Wath Cricket Club, where Utility Source hosts its property networking events.

Dean added: "Community organisations provide opportunities that help young people build confidence, develop new skills and create lasting friendships. Whether that's through football, dance, cricket or other activities, we're proud to support organisations that make a real difference."

Everyone at Utility Source would like to wish the SV Dance Studios dancers the very best of luck as they prepare to represent their school and community at the Dance World Cup in Dublin this summer.
