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
