A Yorkshire Day dinner will raise money for the £1 million Telegraph & Argus Bradford Crocus Cancer Appeal.

Fundraisers Geoffrey and Janet Green have joined forces with Simon Grybas, of the Dubrovnik Hotel, Bradford, to organise the event in support of our campaign.

The four-course dinner will be held at the Dubrovnik Hotel at 7pm on Thursday, August 1. Tickets will cost £30 each, or £55 for couples, with £10 from each ticket sale going to the T&A Bradford Crocus Cancer Appeal.

The appeal aims to buy Bradford University’s Institute of Cancer Therapeutics a new high-tech mass spectrometer, to allow scientists to study tens of thousands of proteins, which play a key role in cancer and could hold the breakthrough to developing new, targeted treatments without the horrendous side-effects of chemotherapy.

Tickets are available from the Dubrovnik Hotel, Oak Lane, Bradford. For more details, call the hotel on (01274) 543511.
