A schoolgirl from Nottingham with dreams of becoming an actress will be going to the wedding of the year tomorrow after the bride-to-be personally invited her.

Leonora Ncomanzi said she was left ‘speechless’ when she was told by the palace she would be attending the event in Windsor Castle.

The 13-year-old is a member of Full Effect, a mentoring group which is supported by the Royal Foundation.

The organisation helps deter young people from becoming involved in youth violence and crime.
