Positive Bradford Day 28th September

A ‘Positive Bradford Day’ will be held on Wednesday, September 28 to coincide with the opening of the new City Park. Centenary Square will be filled with displays, music and dancing performed by groups who promote Bradford’s cultural strength at home and overseas.

It will be a day to celebrate all that is great about Bradford. Sceptics will be especially welcome!

Bradford has been the target of unfair criticism, often through baseless surveys designed simply to create headlines. The measure of a city is not how many department stores it has but the value and contribution of its people.

Those who live, work, study or invest in Bradford know it’s a distinctive city with a unique identity and a bright future. A place where community cohesion isn’t just a fashionable term but a way of daily life.

Positive Bradford has been formed by a group of people fed up of seeing their city unfairly criticised. They have resolved to do something about it - but need support from local people, communities, businesses and other organisations.

Set up by Jane Vincent, founder of recruitment company Candelisa People and Saleem Kader, managing director of international business Bombay Stores Group. For more details please download the PDF here.
