Thornhill Academy in Dewsbury has joined in the fundraising by also going yellow for the day and even had Yorkshire Air Ambulance drop in for a visit.

Wear it Yellow Day is the landmark fundraising event to come from the #yellowyorkshire campaign, which has been urging communities and businesses to embrace the yellow theme of the Tour de France ahead of this week’s Grand Depart.
