SIR – We are very proud to announce that we are ambassadors for Yorkshire’s own Bethany Smile Foundation.

Bethany is an inspiration and a fantastic role model for young people in our society – raising thousands of pounds since she was ten years old to support children with life-limiting illnesses and their families in Yorkshire.

We have no doubt Bethany’s Smile will make an incredible difference to other people’s lives and, to help her to do this’ she has set up Mayke.org.

Bethany has a dream to build a Smile cottage – a cottage built by Yorkshire with funds raised by Yorkshire, for use by Yorkshire families and helping all Yorkshire children's hospices.

To help achieve this, she is encouraging people to join in two events.

If you are over 18 and have an amazing voice, we are looking for ten people to go into a recording studio for A Voice For Yorkshire.

Or why not come along to a family day out at Millennium Square, Leeds on May 31 for A Celebration of Yorkshire?

The Smile Foundation is fortunate to have actor Matthew Lewis as its patron.

If you can help, or for more information, e-mail contact@rcbridgestock.com or bethanyssmile@virginmedia.com.

Carol & Bob Bridgestock
