A fancy-dress ‘Oscars’ event will be held in a bid to raise hundreds of pounds for charities.

The Baildon Annual Charity Ball will be held at the Ramada Jarvis Hotel, Bingley, on Saturday, October 16.

This year’s theme is A Night At The Oscars, and the event will include a drinks reception, four-course meal and live band.

Visitors are invited to dress as movie stars.

Baildon Business Social Group has organised the charity ball, and proceeds will go to charities including Martin House Hospice.
