THE owner of York-based dance clothing-wear retailer Fancy Dance has sold her store in Harrogate.

Jayne Mason, pictured above left, originally had two shops in North Yorkshire, but in order to grow her business she decided to sell her store in Harrogate to enable her operations in York to move to larger premises.

The deal was completed with legal assistance from York law firm Hethertons Solicitors.

Jessica Roberts, head of Corporate Law at Hethertons, pictured above right, said: "Fancy Dance has seen fantastic growth in its popularity within York in recent years and this sale was an important step in its development as one of the city’s leading dance clothes specialists.

"I am glad that we were able to help Jayne with the sale of her Harrogate shop, which has helped her open her larger store in York."
