Looking to meet others working in your local community? The Community Connections Networking Event is a great opportunity to build relationships, share ideas, and explore ways to collaborate for the benefit of Harehills and beyond.
Join the event on Friday, 28th February, from 10 am to 1 pm at CATCH – ARK (Hovingham Avenue, LS8 3QY) for a relaxed and interactive networking session. A light lunch will be provided at 12:30 pm, giving attendees even more time to chat and connect.
Funded by Leeds City Council INNER EAST COMMUNITY COMMITTEE and hosted by Public Health & Magpie Comms teams, this event aims to foster community cohesion, encourage partnerships, and spark ideas for future funding opportunities.
Support independent community journalism!
East Side Story covers the people, places and stories in Leeds that are too often overlooked. While national headlines chase conflict and clickbait, we focus on real communities and the issues shaping daily life in East Leeds.
Divisive content, AI noise and online rumours spread faster than ever. At the same time, many mainstream outlets are stretched and rarely spotlight the community organisations and local champions who deserve recognition.
East Side Story was created to change that. We answer only to our readers. We have no corporate owners or billionaire funders. Our journalists report freely, ask difficult questions and hold power to account.
Your support helps us keep this work going. Monthly contributions make the biggest impact because they allow us to invest in deeper reporting and fearless local journalism.
Supporters also receive exclusive updates, behind the scenes insights and other benefits as a thank you for keeping independent journalism alive.
