A TALENTED Prestwich singer is hoping to follow in the footsteps of Whitefield schoolboy Aaron Jordan who has reached the final of a prestigious talent contest.

Aaron, (14), of Grosvenor Avenue, hit all the right notes before a packed house at the Printworks in Manchester on Saturday (July 14) in the first heat of this year's Talentworks competition.

The contest continues this Saturday, when Hayley Jackson, (21), of Woodhill Drive, bids to join Aaron in the final.
