A FUNDRAISING event will be held to raise money in memory of a York girl.

Evlyn Szakacs died in Martin House children’s hospice in January, aged four weeks, due to problems with her heart, brain and lungs.

An evening of live music and karaoke has been organised at The Mount pub in York to help raise money for the hospice.

Musician Taz Barnes set up the event on Saturday, March 4, and will perform along with James Herford and Tom McKenzie, before the crowd is asked to take part. The event runs from 7pm till midnight.
