DISCO queen Charlotte Lowndes has danced off with her third successive British title.

The nine-years-old Lowton St Mary's schoolgirl, the daughter of proud parents Owen and Jocelyne Lowndes, of Leigh, also collected the slow dance section for the second year running.

Charlotte, a pupil at Leigh's Apple Dance Centre, won the qualifying heats of the national U10 championship and then went on to take the grand final as well as the U10 slowdance.

Little Chelsea Levi Staunton also scored a double title haul at the championships.

The five-years-old Apple Dance Centre pupil lifted the slow dance and solo freestyle sections for under six beginners beating of challengers from all over the UK.
