About the centre
East Leeds FM was created back in 2003 as a pilot project run by Heads Together Productions with students from John Smeaton High School.
It has grown and developed since then and in 2014 the organisation saved the crumbling old Seacroft Chapel to create Chapel FM Arts Centre; a new home for ELFM and the first-ever dedicated arts centre in East Leeds. In 2023 the name of the radio station changed to East Leeds Community Radio to reflect the work we currently do.
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.
