The Czerniga family from Greengates. It's hoped enough money can be raised so mum Kasia, who has been diagnosed with a rare type of cancer, can receive proton beam therapy
A FUNDRAISING football tournament is being held to raise money for a woman who has been diagnosed with cancer.
Mum -of-two Kasia Czerniga, 36, from Greengates received the devastating news earlier this year that she has a type of brain tumour called medulloblastoma.
A campaign is now underway in a bid to raise money for proton beam therapy, a type of radiotherapy that uses a beam of high energy protons to treat specific types of cancer.
The football tournament will be held on Sunday, between 11am and 5pm, at Otley Town Football Club.
As well as the tournament, featuring 14 teams, there will also be a barbecue, refreshments, a bouncy castle, face painting and more.
