What a stressful year it's been for Kidderminster's Sally Haines.

18 months ago, her family's sheet metal business was doing so well, she landed contracts with Heathrow Airport and Wembley Stadium.

Then the recession hit so hard, Sally had no choice other than to put her parents' company into liquidation.

But musically speaking, the timing was perfect.

Sally always wanted a career as a performer, having trained in the theatre - and now, 12 years later, she's continuing what she once started and is a regular on the Midlands' circuit.
