    Three groups have come together in an effort to bring more fish to Bradford Beck.

    The Environment Agency, Bradford Council and the Friends of Bradford's Becks (FOBB), are planning small modifications to ease access for the likes of trout and minnows from the River Aire.

    The improvements are also aimed to make the beck accessible to salmon, tying in with DNAire, a Heritage Lottery funded project between the Environment Agency and the Aire Rivers Trust.

    This would enable them to migrate all the way up to Gargrave, as well as hopefully into Bradford Beck.
