Members of Huddersfield Soroptimists joined with other Yorkshire clubs and Handicap International to build a pyramid of shoes at the Royal Armouries in Leeds. The event was in support of the Ban Cluster Bombs campaign. Children and their families were invited to bring unwanted shoes to build the pyramid, with each shoe symbolising a loss of life and limbs to cluster bombs. People were also able to sign petitions banning the use of the weapons. The donated shoes will be redistributed to the needy by Oxfam.
