Batley Iftar venue changed amid weather concerns
One of the Batley calendar's biggest community events has had to change venue ahead of a dicey weekend weather forecast.
The Batley Iftar, organised by the More In Common group set up to ensure the legacy of Jo Cox, will now take place at Upper Batley High School, on Batley Field Hill.
The move has been made in anticipation of rain, which would have proved problematic if the event had gone ahead in the town centre.

This year's Iftar will take place from 7.30pm. There will be food and entertainment provided.
