Faryl to sing for Guides
Wednesday 19th August 2009, 7:33PM BST.
Singing sensation Faryl Smith will top the bill at Girlguiding Staffordshire’s 100th birthday party at the Shugborough estate next month.
The talented 14-year-old sang her way to the final of ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent and has since signed the largest record deal awarded to a schoolgirl.
The line-up for the party, on September 5, already includes former Atomic Kitten Liz McClarnon.
The party marks 100 years to the day since a small group of girls stepped forward at the 1909 Boy Scout rally at Crystal Palace and asked Robert Baden-Powell to start up a similar movement for them.
