GORGEOUS Alesha Dixon was the guest of honour at a charity bash held at Ayr Racecourse.

The chart-topping Strictly Come Dancing star strutted her stuff on the stage at the Cash for Kids lunch.

The event was hosted by Ayrshire based radio station West Sound and helped bring the total raised so far this year to £53,000.

Alesha performed her hit singe The Boy Does Nothing, much to the delight of guests.

Station director Brenda Ritchie said: “There was a great atmosphere at the lunch on Friday and I’m delighted with how well the event went and the generosity from the people of Ayrshire alongside the stars who donated their time.

“The Cash for Kids lunch is always popular and despite everyone feeling the pinch this year, it was such a good turnout, everyone had fun and most importantly, we raised lots of money for needy children.”

Michelle McManus, girl band High Voltage, Atlanta, up and coming Glasgowband The Attic Lightsalso performed at the charity lunch.
