Queen's Baton Relay visits Huddersfield July 12, 2022
The baton heralding the start of the Games had made an epic journey around the 72 Commonwealth nations and was spending three days in Yorkshire having begun its final 25-day journey around England at the Eden Project in Cornwall on July 4.
The baton was in Huddersfield after starting the day in Sheffield and Rotherham in South Yorkshire.
From Huddersfield the baton was taken to Bradford, Saltaire and Leeds and on Wednesday July 13 headed from Hull across the East Riding to York and then along the Yorkshire coast from Scarborough towards Whitby.
After venturing further north the baton was heading to the West Midlands for its final 11 days before arriving at the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham on July 28 where the message from The Queen carried in the baton was to be read.
