When it was time for Charis to later perform on stage, she danced a solo to the song Stand By Me with an image of her dad behind her on screen.<\/p>\n
As the performance continued, Charis was joined by the other children at the dance school who came to support her.<\/p>\n
Visibly moved, presenter Nick Knowles and Strictly star Katya Jones were reduced to tears.<\/p>\n
Nick said: \u201cNot a dry eye in the house, it\u2019s clear to see how much the school means to the community and members like Charis.\u201d<\/p>\n
