Bi+ Leeds Social Group

We have linked up with Leeds Civic Trust this LGBT History Month for a walking tour of locations and venues integral to the LGBTQ+ community of Leeds.  LGBT History Month's theme for 2025 is activism and social change and we think it's important to know where a community has come from to help it get to where it needs to go.

The tour will uncover sites from Leeds' Queer past along a route following the trail of Leeds Civic Trust's 2018 rainbow plaques.  There will also be some bonus history thrown in - inspired by the West Yorkshire Queer Stories archive.

Meeting point - Leeds Beckett University (outside Leslie Silver building) (LS2 3ED / what3words quest.gladiators.mixed).

Meet from 4.45pm for a start time of 5pm.

Accessibility information - this is a wheelchair accessible tour.  It is approximately 2.5 miles in length.  There will be regular stops as part of the tour and a fifteen minute  break is included.  The route is step free but does not have seating at the majority of the stops
