More than a hundred people flocked to last night’s fundraising event at The Royal Oak pub in Keighley to help the family of tragic toddler Riley Turner.

The evening was staged by the pub, in Dameside, with backing from Keighley’s Jam Radio.

Paddy Gaskin, assistant manager at the Royal Oak, said the cash raised would help with funeral costs or be used to set up a trust fund for Riley’s twin brother, Kenzie.

DJs, including Jam Radio’s Phil Hickinson and DJ Beefy, attended.

Live acts included Boys From The Bench, Tia Rhian and local girl band, The Bon Bonz.

The auction featured a signed shirt worn by Keighley’s international pool player, Chris Melling, during his Mosconi Cup success last year.
