Members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elders Association (AMEA) in Yorkshire and the North East held a Pre Charity Walk For Peace Dinner at St John’s Infants School in Dewsbury on Thursday 29 March 2018.  They were joined by the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of West Yorkshire, Mr. David Dinmore, and the Deputy Mayor of Kirklees, Councillor Gwen Lowe as well as representatives from 20 charities and community groups based in the West Yorkshire area.

The Charity Walk for Peace (Registered Charity Number 1161567) raises and distributes money to UK charities.  Funds are raised through Charity Walks which have been held all over the UK.  The first Walk in 1998 raised £1,500 but the amount raised in 2017 was £690,000.  The target for the 2018 Walk is £1,000,000.  As part of the promotion of the Walk regional dinners are being held so that charities can find out more information about the Walk and how they may be nominated as a beneficiary of the Walk.
