A Bradford Italian restaurant will raise money for a cancer charity during a New Year’s Eve event.

Pesto Italian Restaurant, on Prune Park Lane in Allerton, will collect cash for Bradford and Airedale Cancer Support during an evening of dining and entertainment.

Guests and staff will be able to make donations at the event, which will include a live band and performances by table magician Jonathan Paul.

Tickets cost £45 for adults and £10 for children and include a menu of Italian ‘piattini’, a glass of bubbly to toast in the New Year as well as the evening’s entertainment.

Pesto general manager Ian Russell said: “This time of year is all about the season of goodwill and Bradford and Airedale Cancer Support give cancer sufferers and their families a wide range of free services to improve their quality of life.”
