    A FASHION show is being held to help a brave disabled toddler.

    Catwalk models will take part in the event to raise money for the Give Tilly a Hand appeal. It is in aid of Tilly Lockey, three, from Tow Law, County Durham, who lost her hands to meningitis as a baby.

    Models will parade at the Derwent Manor Hotel, near Consett, County Durham, from 6pm on Sunday, October 25. The judges will include industry experts and former Big Brother contestant Liam McGough.

    He said: "Tilly is a lovely, lovely girl and it is my pleasure to help with any little bits and bobs I can do. When you see how brave she is, it makes you evaluate the time you set aside to help others."

    The competition is being organised by local photography studio owner Debbie Todd.

    She said: "Tilly is a great little girl and everyone has been very supportive. We have had a few donations for our raffle so far, but we still need more.

    "We also have a limited number of tables for business to promote themselves and sell items at the event."

    Tickets to the show are £3, to include entertainment.

    For tickets or to help, call 07818-233001.
