A DINNER has been held in Bradford to drum up support ahead of a charity walk which is taking place later this year.

The event was organised by members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elders Association for Yorkshire and the North East ahead of the Walk for Peace, which takes place in London on May 14.

Local MP Tracy Brabin (Batley and Spen) attended the dinner, along with various other dignitaries from across the district and county.

Dr Muzaffar Chaudhary Ahmad, president of AMEA in Yorkshire and the North East, thanked the guests for attending the dinner and supporting the charity.

More than 75 people attended the dinner, which was held at the Al-Mahdi Mosque in Undercliffe.
