Thousands of pounds are donated to an appeal to help those affected by the Hebden Bridge blaze.

A fund to help businesses destroyed in a large blaze at a former Victorian mill in West Yorkshire has raised more than £13,000 in 24 hours.

Its chief executive Steve Duncan said: "This appeal fund is to support the businesses who've lost stock and equipment in the fire. "I've got no idea what happens from here, I've got nothing I can send anyone or sell. Thankfully I was insured."Fellow artist Julia Ogden, who appeared on the BBC series Home is Where the Art is, also lost her work and equipment in the blaze.Ms Ogden said she had no insurance, though a friend had set up a separate fundraising appeal to help her. That appeal has already raised more than £3,000.
