These fire jugglers were part of a community event in Huddersfield recently which saw a procession of glow band-waving participants - including a Quaker accordionist - finish up at the Meeting House where they were greeted by the co-clerk with a lantern.

David Robson tells us that Huddersfield Meeting is one of seven faith based groups in Paddock Village working together with a one year Home Office grant.

'Our aim is to learn to co-operate more closely and to reach out to meet identified needs in the whole community,' he says. 'Activities such as this celebration are offered particularly to those who may be isolated either by age or social circumstances.'
This Friday evening event, he says, 'offers a different slant on the challenge to be "open to new light, from whatever source it may come".'
