A former Bradford College fashion student is organising a charity event next month to raise funds for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

The event, at the White Swan Hotel in Halifax, will feature the latest Italian footwear from Russo, of Westgate, Halifax, and the first evening will be hosted by TV's Christa Ackroyd.

There will also be a special display by seven Bradford College students.

Organiser Jeanette Quinn, of Clayton, who runs the Russo shop, said: "I thought this would be a good way of raising money for the air ambulance and also giving Bradford students a chance to show off their designs."

Tickets for the show, on Friday, October 4, Saturday, October 5 and Friday, October 11 at 7.30pm, cost £10 and include a buffet. They can be obtained from the shop at 19, Westgate, Halifax.
