A Bradford fundraiser has raised more than £850 for children with cancer.
The event, organised by Chris Henry, Provincial Grand Master of Bradford District Oddfellows, and held at Woodbottom Working Men’s Club in Baildon, supported Solving Kids’ Cancer UK, a charity that helps children diagnosed with neuroblastoma.
Chris Henry, Provincial Grand Master of Bradford District Oddfellows, said: "I am absolutely delighted with the success of our charity afternoon and would like to extend my sincere thanks to everyone who helped make the event so special.
"The generosity shown by local businesses across Shipley and Saltaire has been remarkable.
"Events like this demonstrate the tremendous community spirit that exists in our area."
Guests heard live music from award-winning band Sultans Of Swing and took part in a raffle and tombola.
The raffle and tombola raised £415.30, while ticket sales brought in almost £450 more.
The money will help Solving Kids’ Cancer UK support children and families facing neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer.
The charity also funds research into neuroblastoma and campaigns for improved access to potentially life-saving treatments.
Mr Henry said: "We are incredibly proud to be supporting Solving Kids’ Cancer UK and hope the money raised will make a meaningful difference to the children and families who need it most."
