Batley Bulldogs rugby mascot also made an appearance along with 15 Star Wars characters.
Amanda said: “It was fantastic and we have raised a great amount, which will help Take Ten carry on the great work that they do.
“When we were talking to Take Ten the day before, they had no money in the bank, so they couldn't get out to people who needed help. This money will hopefully allow them to get out to see a lot more people.

A spokesperson from Zucchinis said: “The event was a huge success and everyone who came thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
“We managed to raise lots of money for charity and will probably make it a yearly event.”
