On Saturday we were honoured by visits from the Deputy Lord Lieutenant and the Lord Mayor of Leeds who both took a very active part in the day. 

We were entertained by the Sun, Sand & Light Steel Band when the Lord Mayor enjoyed a little dance . . . and the children from the Tracy Scanlan Dancers gave us a colourful programme showing us their talented dance steps.

The day finished with the traditional cutting of the 40th anniversary cake by Vice Chairman Christine Young - helped along by Chairman Mike Ball and PHAB staff members Catherine and Vivienne.
