Events are also taking place in Halifax town centre, including police exhibition vans at the Woolshops shopping centre on Saturday September 27 and at Broad Street Plaza on Sunday September 28.
Calderdale Council’s Cabinet Member for Communities, Councillor Marcus Thompson, said: “We’re proud to be a Purple Flag town, and by getting involved in Purple Flag week we’re reminding people that Halifax holds this prestigious award, meaning it’s a great place for a safe night out.
“We are very proud of the hard work our staff and partners have put in to ensure Halifax keeps its Purple Flag status, and it’s great we can celebrate this during the national week.”
