Hi
I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question as we're south based but I just wanted to say that it goes quiet at this age as due to child licencing the production companies prefer to use a small young looking 16-18 yo without the need for licencing. I think it's hard to get into an agency at this age for the same reasons unless you have some professional experience already but that's not to say you shouldn't try. Just don't be surprised or discouraged- it's simply an age thing.

Purple Giraffe is great. North West based with two super girls running it who are very honest and approachable and in this industry its what you want. From experience a smaller Agency is better than a bigger one. Good luck to your daughter
