  The girls from Boobs & Brass are saying goodbye to Yorkshire tonight in Huddersfield

If you are anywhere near Huddersfield tonight there is still time to pop along and enjoy the wonderful musical entertainment that is being put on by National Champion Brighouse & Rastrick alongside their guests, the girls from Boobs & Brass.

Media interest

The concert has already attracted a great deal of media interest, with only a few tickets at the 1200 seat concert hall still available if you are quick enough for the last chance to hear the amazing fund raising girls in action.

65 of them will take to the stage to say 'Goodbye to Yorkshire' as they look to add to their incredible fund raising total of over £230,0004BR
