Eight-year-old dancer Delilah wins Young Performer at Child of Wales Awards after dancing through grief

Eight-year-old Delilah Hill of Merthyr Tydfil lost her father when she was six. She answered with dance, competing at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool, and this weekend she won Young Performer at the Child of Wales Awards — plus a surprise video message from Strictly Come Dancing stars Melanie Walters and Aljaz Skorjanec. Founder Blanche Sainsbury called their resilience, kindness and courage an inspiration to all.
