A NEWLY-formed community group is appealing for volunteers to help it carry out a litter pick at Burgess Field, Highfield.

The Friends of Burgess Field will be tidying up this public area between 10am and 1pm this Saturday. (Oct 18)

Keighley town councillor Amjid Ahmed, one of the friends group's founders, said Bradford Council was providing equipment to help with the clean-up.

He said he and his colleagues would welcome support from anyone prepared to spare some time to improve the area.

"We want to make it a better environment for local people, both young and old," he added.
