<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>As you aware,
there are lots of responses to the EDL (English Defence League) coming to
Bradford – some people think they should be banned, some want to
demonstrate against them and others just want to ignore them. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>However, over
the last week or so, a group of local people have come together to try to
ensure that Bradford’s communities have the opportunity to get together,
in the city centre, to peacefully celebrate Bradford’s diversity. We are
pleased to say that this community led initiative now has the full support of
the leadership of Bradford Council. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>So on 28<sup>th</sup>
August there will be a Community Celebration, in partnership with Bradford
Council, on Infirmary Fields 12 - 4pm.This peaceful celebration event will be
attended by Bradford’s Civic Leaders, along with all the local people who
want to come together, in harmony, to affirm themselves as proud citizens of
Bradford. The event is being called <b>‘Be Bradford- Peaceful
Together’</b>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Many local
people welcome the support that those outside our District want to show. However
we feel the best way of showing support to Bradford people is to give us the
space, and opportunity to organise and celebrate ourselves.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This event is
part of a wider series of activities currently being organised around that
weekend – we will be able to give you more details of that programme of
events over the coming few days. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>So you are
very welcome to come and celebrate peacefully with us at <b>Infirmary Fields,
Westgate on Sat 28<sup>th</sup> August 12- 4pm</b>. Do let other people know
about this event - and if you would like to help with the organising of the
day, perform at the event, run a stall, etc then let us know a.s.a.p.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
