Volunteers from Leeds descended on Westminster for a guided tour around the Houses of Parliament.
Members of Kirkstall Valley Community Association were given a special tour of Westminster by local MP Rachel Reeves.
The volunteers watched MPs and Lords battle it out in debates in the chamber and met politicians.
They then enjoyed a drink on Parliament’s riverside terrace, where next week the local beer Kirkstall Pale Ale, will be on tap.
Rachel Reeves, who represents Leeds West, said: “I was delighted to see Parliament visited by Kirkstall residents this week.
“It was a privilege to show them around behind the scenes, and celebrate the work many of them do putting on events every year.”
