A 10-year-old schoolboy has raised £3,000 for a cancer charity after his dad was diagnosed with the disease.

Tom Bontoft-Robinson, from Pilham, near Gainsborough, started raising money for Cancer Research after dad, Andy, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of the disease last year.

Tom sold his books and DVDs, and organised raffles and fundraising events.

Andy said although the treatment was brutal, his son's efforts really helped him to get through it.

"He's an inspiration - that's the only way I can describe it", he added.

Lincolnshire Police officers and staff are to get two extra rest days per year in a bid to improve wellbeing.

The force said the move was designed to allow for rest and recuperation.

Chief Constable Bill Skelly said it would also improve levels of resilience across the organisation.

Investigations are continuing into the cause of a Red Arrows jet crash which killed an engineer and left a pilot injured in hospital.

The Hawk aircraft, which is used by the famous Lincolnshire-based aerobatic display team, crashed at RAF Valley on Anglesey at about 13:30 on Tuesday.

Eyewitnesses said they only saw one person eject from the jet before it hit the ground and burst into flames.

The RAF has described the incident as a "tragic accident".

North Wales Police said police and crime scene investigators, supported by other specialists, were carrying out a joint investigation led by the Air Accident Investigation Branch to find out what led up to and caused the "tragic event".

The pilot of the Hawk aircraft, which crashed at RAF Valley, is receiving medical care.

A Red Arrows engineer dies after a "tragic accident" involving a jet crash at RAF Valley on Anglesey.

Following the events in Wales, here is what we have learned so far

• A Red Arrows jet crashed at RAF Valley in Wales
• It is believed it was returning from Anglesey to RAF Scampton
• Emergency services were called to the scene about 13:30
• Two people were on board and seen 'ejecting' from the aircraft
• Eyewitnesses reported big plumes of smoke and a 'fireball'

It will be a dry night and any cloud will continue to break, leaving longer clear spells, meaning it will become rather cold with the odd freezing fog patch possible. Lows tonight of -2C (28F).

Tomorrow will see a dry and bright start, but it will turn cloudier from the west through the day, with a freshening breeze.

Conditions will be mainly dry, but there will be an increasing chance of a shower, especially in the north. Feeling milder with highs of 8C (46F).

We've been hearing from another eyewitness of the Red Arrows jet crash this afternoon in Wales.

The jet was travelling back to RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire - where the display crew are based - when it crashed.

A Lincolnshire-based Red Arrows jet has crashed after an incident at RAF Valley in north Wales, the Ministry of Defence has said.

It is understood two people were on board the Hawk aircraft which crashed at the Anglesey base used to train the UK's fighter pilots on Tuesday afternoon.

There have been a number of other air crashes in recent years:

August 2015 - Eleven men were killed when a vintage Hawker Hunter jet plummeted on to the A27 in West Sussex during a loop-the-loop stunt at the Shoreham Airshow.

A further 13 people, including the pilot Andy Hill, were injured.

The disaster led to the cancellation of the Red Arrows performing stunts at the Farnborough Air Show for the first time in more than 50 years over safety fears.

August 2015 - RAF-trained fast jet pilot Kevin Whyman, 35, was killed when his Folland Gnat aircraft plummeted during a display at the CarFest event in Oulton Park, Cheshire.

November 2011 - Highly experienced Red Arrows pilot Sean Cunningham, 35, was fatally injured when he was ejected from the cockpit of a Hawk T1 aircraft while on the ground at RAF Scampton, Lincolnshire.

A coroner ruled that the safety pin on the ejector seat had been "entirely useless".

August 2011 - Red Arrows Flt Lt Jon Egging, 33, was flying a Hawk T1 when it came down into a field after he pulled six times the force of gravity at an air show near Bournemouth Airport, killing him instantly.

September 2007 - James Bond stuntman Brian Brown, 49, died when he crashed a World War Two Hurricane after carrying out an unplanned barrel roll at a re-enactment of the Battle of Britain at Shoreham Air Show, West Sussex.

This was the scene at RAF Valley in Wales earlier following the crash of a Royal Air Force Red Arrows jet.

An air ambulance was seen at the airbase where two people are believed to have ejected before the crash.

A witness to the aftermath of the Red Arrows aircraft crash has spoken of her shock at the sight which greeted her.

Caterer Anne Wilson, who works at The Anglesey Golf Club situated at the end of the runway at RAF Valley, said: "I did not see the crash, but I heard a very loud noise.

"We are used to the planes going over but this was unusual, it was different to what we normally hear around here.

"I did go and have a look and there was a big fireball and lots of dark smoke ... quite a few of the members actually saw it.

"They said the plane came in quite steeply and saw a pilot eject, but that it was very low to the ground."

The 52-year-old said the air ambulance was at the scene "for a very long time".
