A fundraising event to pay for a seriously ill teenager to go on holiday will take place this month.

The evening of music and entertainment will raise funds for Luke Bottomley, 14, of Raven Terrace, Allerton, who is battling cancer in his spine.

One of the event organisers, Sue Jacques, said she hoped enough money would be made to pay for a once-in-a-lifetime break for Luke.

"Even if it's just somewhere in the UK it would be a holiday of a lifetime, not your bog standard holiday," she said.

The night, at Manningham Ward Club on Bullroyd Lane in Bradford, will take place at 8pm on Thursday, May 31.

It will be free to attend and a raffle, auction and collections will be held.
