VOLUNTEERS raised £500 for their local hospital by dancing the night away.
Nite City Promotions, which raises funds for local charities, organised a red nose disco at Hambleton Forum, in Northallerton.
The idea was to raise money towards a diathermy machine that detects the early symptoms of cancer of the bowel, and will benefit patients at the Friarage Hospital, in Northallerton.
Youngsters aged between seven and 14 danced to music provided by Starlight Disco.
Staff from the unit are continuing their fundraising drive to pay for the machine, which costs about £7,000.
Anyone who would like to help is asked to contact ward clerk Pauline Forster at the hospital, on (01609) 764847.
