    The event started in Sheffield on 12 June and has already passed through Barnsley, Wakefield, Doncaster, East Riding and York. The relay will finish in Leeds on Tuesday 27 June with a celebration event.

    Children from Baildon C of E Primary School will welcome the baton to the Bradford district at the famous Woolpack Inn in Esholt where they will receive it from pupils from Yeadon Primary School on Thursday 22 June at 2pm.

    The baton will be taken to Byron Primary School in Barkerend for pupils from the school to start Stage 12 on Friday.
