🏗️ A new chapter for Dewsbury Arcade! ✨

Despite some “unforeseen issues,” the regeneration of the historic Dewsbury Arcade has reached a major milestone. Empty since 2016, the Grade II Listed building is being restored as part of the Dewsbury Blueprint, led by Kirklees Council, the Dewsbury Neighbourhood Board, and The Arcade Group.

Once complete, it will become the UK’s first community-run shopping centre, a vibrant new space at the heart of Dewsbury’s revival. 🛍️💫

Hate has no home here.

After attacks on a Manchester synagogue, Sussex mosque and a racial assault in Bradford, communities unite, demanding compassion, justice and leadership to end rising hate.

In a strongly worded statement, Humma Nizami, CEO of REN (Race Equality Network), said the recent wave of attacks had left minority communities “feeling vulnerable, scared and living in constant fear and distress.

“The rise of Islamophobia, anti-Semitism and hatred in recent times has resulted in communities feeling vulnerable, scared and living in constant fear and distress.

“We deserve to live in a society built on dignity, respect and justice for all. The intensification of racism and hatred towards these communities in the UK has been driven by the racist rhetoric of our politicians, which is then amplified in the media, causing fear and anxiety.

“This is the time for our politicians to step up, take responsibility and lead with compassion in order to defeat these narratives of division from within our society.”
