Muslim volunteers do New Year’s Day clean up of Huddersfield town centre

Huddersfield streets have been given a clean start for the year by volunteers.

While many were in bed recovering from New Year’s Eve, around 30 members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association (AMA) headed in to town to do a litter pick.
