Coinciding with Creativity and Wellbeing Week (19-25 May 2025), Leeds Arts Health and Wellbeing Network (LAHWN) has launched its new Creative Health in Leeds report. The research was funded by Leeds City Council Culture Programmes Team as part of the legacy planning from LEEDS2023.

The end of 2024 is only a few months away. The same months until the end of the Leeds Capital of Culture year. For us at EcocNews, a true European Capital of Culture, independent of Brexit.

A team at Leeds Beckett University has produced, in partnership with another local authority, a user-friendly toolkit that may be of use, or at least a useful reference when planning events (big or small).

From Leeds owls to an Ugly Duckling, magnificent museums to amazing art there’s something for everyone to enjoy this half-term in Leeds.
