Impact, the organisation formerly known as the Elmbridge Youth Forum, has been scouring the borough for local talent that have the X factor.

A line up of 15 acts, ranging from singers, dancers, actors and musicians, has now been chosen to play at the Elmbridge Has Talent final on Saturday, October 24, at Reed’s School in Sandy Lane, Cobham.

The show starts at 7.30pm and tickets, costing £5 for adults and £3 for young people up to the age of 19, will be on sale from Monday, October 5.

Money raised from ticket sales will be going to the mayor of Elmbridge’s charity, New Life Foundation, which cares for disabled children.

Councillor Jan Fuller, portfolio holder for leisure and cultural services at the council said: “Elmbridge Has Talent promises to be a fun filled night! Spectators will not be disappointed by this amazing display of local talent. They might be witnessing a few stars in the making and with all profit going to the Mayor’s Appeal New Life Foundation, it is all in a good cause.”
