AN ice cream man will be whipping up a berry nice treat for Comic Relief.
Naheem Uddin will be donating ten per cent of his takings on Friday to the national charity.
Mr Uddin, who took over Mrs Tony's Ices in 2012, will be selling his treats, including red ice creams, at different locations around the town.
And anyone who misses him throughout the day can catch him in the car park of the town's Sainsbury's from 6pm until 7pm.
"I got permission from Sainsbury's because they are supporting Comic Relief as well," he said.
"This is the first time that I'm taking part in the day, though hopefully there should be many more fundraisers to come in future."
Mr Uddin, who lives in Bradford but mainly trades in the Keighley area, said: "Mrs Tony's Ices has been in Keighley for so many years that it's become like a tradition.
"I get adults telling me they bought ice cream from this business when they were children. When I bought it I decided to keep the old name."
