Muslims and Christians gathered in Keighley on Saturday to promote unity.

The well-attended event, at the Muslim Community Centre, in Emily Street, included shared food.

It was organised by Ittehaad Community Association chairman Mohammed Saleem.

He said: "The aim of the event was to promote better understanding between the religions, to learn from one another and to share good practices.

"It was a very successful and enjoyable afternoon and I hope that it will be the start of many such events to maintain and develop the relationship between the different faiths.

"We will be visiting our Christian friends in the future.

"It is important that we have this understanding and friendship."
