A community singing group from Workington has become the first Cumbrian team to make it through auditions to sing at Disneyland Paris.

The team of children and adults range in age from five to thirty.

They have been rehearsing for months for their big moment this December.

The group now have around six months to become word-perfect in five songs, some of which have French lyrics.

Three of the songs will be known, but two won't have been heard before.

They're set to sing on the stage in front of Sleeping Beauty's Castle to an audience of thousands at Christmas time.

But it won't all be about the performance - some members of the group are hoping to take advantage of their time at the Disneyland theme park.
