A barbecue, organised by the Bingley committee for Yorkshire Cancer Research, held at The Hollies in Bingley raised £1,837 for the regional charity.
Committee chairman Marjorie Hodgson said: “We’re so pleased the event went well and delighted at the amount raised for the charity.
“It was a really fun afternoon, all the guests really enjoyed themselves and showed true Dunkirk spirit when it started to rain.
“We’re looking forward to next year already and hope it will be just as successful.”
Last year through a number of fundraising events Bingley committee raised £5,000 for Yorkshire Cancer Research.
The money is spent in Yorkshire, funding £6 million of research, treatment and diagnosis projects each year.
