A charity in Bradford is to start a major fundraising drive to help vulnerable girls escape the traps of child sexual exploitation.

The Great Horton-based Joshua Project is linking up with the Golddigger Trust.

Joshua Project director Rich Jones said despite the Bradford project already having had a great impact on the lives of many girls in the area, it still needs to do more.

The first of the fundraising events is on Saturday, November 30, from 7.30pm at My Impact Centre, Cross Lane. Tickets for the event can be bought online at joshuaproject.org.uk/iam.
