Children, firefighters, Council wardens and students banded together to spruce up a neighbourhood in Barkerend, Bradford.

The clear-up saw a path known as The Greenway cleared of fly-tipped litter and graffiti. New bins were installed and firefighters visited homes to carry out fire safety checks.

Pupils at Barkerend Primary joined in the litter pick. The day was organised by Bradford College students and Bradford Council wardens, with help from Incommunities. Councillor Imran Hussain, deputy leader of Bradford Council, said: “The event’s an excellent example of partnership.”
