Pupils in Ilkley are celebrating after being named among the country’s best Children in Need fundraisers.

Ilkley Grammar School’s efforts contributed more than £4,800 to last year’s appeal.

Now, Children in Need organisers have invited an Ilkley Grammar School representative to BBC Television Centre in London to find out the school’s views on the charity and what the organisation can offer to help support the school further in its fundraising.

At the last Children in Need appeal, a walk by Year 9 raised £4,042, a Year 7 Pudsey Bear event raised £276, a small change collection raised £521, fundraising games raised £28 and a further £7.56 was raised at the school.
