'I cannot wait for the magic in 2025'
Ahead of Bradford celebrating being the UK City of Culture in 2025, one of the BBC's New Voices winners has been telling us how the city influenced her.
Irene Kaali, 30, was one of three people picked to be at the heart of the BBC's City of Culture coverage following a four-week talent search by BBC Radio Leeds.
The year of culture is set to deliver more than 1,000 performances in 2025 and Ms Kaali said there are already some "amazing opportunities" in the arts in the city.
"I cannot wait for the magic that will happen when our city comes together," she said.
