A song paying tribute to Jo Cox has been officially released recorded by Batley Community Choir.
The town's choir were joined by local schools and members of the community.
The proceeds from the single will go towards the charity fund set up in Jo's name.
It features a rendition of Bette Midler's 'The Rose'.
Graeme Raynor is from the choir, he says: "We chose the song because Jo was a Labour MP and their symbol is a rose, she's a Yorkshire MP and Yorkshire's symbol is a rose and the lyrices of the song felt very apt."
"We got in touch with Jo's family and we recieved their blessing and they said it was a lovely idea."
