A woman has been given a criminal behaviour order banning her from entering a town centre or begging for the next five years.
The order says that Tracey Williams is not allowed to enter Keighley town centre between Cavendish Street, Bradford Road/Worth Way, Church Way, Market Street, Market Place, Low Street and North Street, apart from to attend planned appointments with a solicitor or a housing options team.

Williams is banned from sitting, sleeping or loitering in an area accessible to members of the public in the Bradford area with any item or article which would give another person the impression that she is either homeless or begging (such as a cup a hat, a quilt, a sleeping bag or a sign).
She isn't allowed to ask people for money or goods, including cigarettes or alcohol, in the Bradford district, except as part of a job, benefit claim, retail purchase or a banking transaction.
She can't stay in any shop or commercial premises in the district, including car parks and entrances, when asked to leave by any staff member.
The order will be in place until March 2027.
