The day saw characters from Yorkshire Cosplay Con and friends, Optimus Prime and various food and fun stalls come together to raise money for the charity.

Cash for Kids charity manager Allan Ogle said: “We were overwhelmed with the response to last year’s event so were delighted to be coming back again bigger and better with even more activities for all the family to enjoy.”
