A WOMAN who is almost blind has impressed judges with her artistic talents after getting through to the final of a national competition.
Mary Bestwick, 65, a resident of Ashbourne's Rowans Car Centre, in Whalley New Road, Blackburn, beat off entrants from other residents at the centre with her 'Skeleton in the Cupboard' showpiece.
Mary will now go on to the last stage of the competition and compete against winners from Ashbourne's other 145 homes and care centres throughout the UK. The winner will be announced next month.
She said: "I am delighted that I am through to the final. I don't know where the idea came from but everyone has a skeleton in the cupboard, don't they?"
