Cash for residents affected by Dewsbury flat fire
The Walker Street complex, in Thornhill Lees, has handed over a cheque for £104 and given bedding to people whose homes were involved in the Ashworth Close flat fire, in Eightlands, on December 7.
Firefighters said the blaze was particularly hard to tackle – flames shot out of the roof and five flats were affected, two of them particularly badly.

The cause of the fire was thought to be a discarded cigarette.
Walker Street raised the funds with help from the Ashworth Tenants and Residents Association.
