More than 1,000 Easter eggs have been donated to Bradford adults living with learning disabilities. 

Inspire Futures Foundation distributed 1,500 Easter eggs across West Yorkshire with the help of partner organisation Smiles for Miles. 

All the eggs will go to children or vulnerable communities from 'hard to reach' and socially excluded backgrounds. 

Mushtaq Hussain, the founder of Inspire Futures Foundation, told the Telegraph & Argus: "The programme was supported by our partner organisation who raised over 1500 Easter eggs to be distributed across Bradford and Wakefield.

"The aim of this has been to ensure that children and vulnerable communities from hard to reach and socially excluded backgrounds are also able to enjoy chocolate treats during the Easter period.

"Due to the pandemic and poverty many families have been unable to provide chocolate, so over the last few years people have donated chocolate eggs to help make a difference."

The organisation previously told how many families shed tears when they answered pleas for help in the midst of the pandemic.

Inspire Futures Foundation began supporting families ahead of the first lockdown in 2020, making it one of the first organisations to help those in need.

In the difficult months that followed those early warnings about the virus, founder Mushtaq Hussain said their support quickly became a "lifeline" for families.

The charity distributed vital food and hygiene packages throughout Bradford district.
