The event will include nightclub-style effects and reusable glowsticks provided for everyone taking part,.

Two weeks ago, more than 400 people attended the funeral at St Leonard’s Church for the 16-year-old, who was found stabbed on a pathway of Lorden’s Hill on January 16.

Jules, who lives in Dinnington, said: “Leonne’s death was a massive shock for everybody.

“It feels palpable in the town that something awful has happened.

Admission to Saturday’s session is £10 and the event is recommended for over-14s.

The doors open at 10.30am and the dancing starts at 11am.
