'It's good to see Muslims and Christians working together for the common good'
Members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association in Dewsbury and Spen Valley marked the end of the Muslim Holy Month of Ramadan by joining up with Reverend Simon Cash and his team at Dewsbury Minister to feed the homeless and needy on Saturday 24 June 2017.
