WHARFEDALE Friends of Palestine will be holding a third vigil for the children of Gaza in the market square in Otley on Friday, February 2nd from 5pm to 5.30pm.

This will be followed on Saturday, February 3 with a fundraiser for Medical Aid for Palestine. From 10am to 2pm there will be a stall at the Buttercross in Otley Market Place (next to the clock) selling cakes, savouries, jewellery, crafts and badges, and Zaytoun goods, ethically sourced products from Palestine.

A spokesperson for Wharfedale Friends of Palestine said: "We will also have volunteers who will be sharing information about Palestine, so it's a good opportunity to find out more about what's happening and why it's so important that we keep speaking up.

"This is a great event to come together as a community, raise money for medical aid for Palestine and meet new friends."
