AMAZING news that Gascoigne House, Middleton has won this prestigious award. The transformative scheme has provided the community with affordable extra care spaces, a cafe, hair salon, green space, and the wider development has delivered over much-needed 100 new council houses. Proud of our teams!

Had a great time out in Gipton with the Labour team today, speaking with local residents and picking up casework along the way.
It’s always good to hear directly from the community. If you live in Gipton or Harehills and need support, don’t hesitate to reach out – We’re here to help!

Helping with our #SEND careers fair @leedsmuseums.bsky.social Leeds City Museum for #CareersForAll this afternoon. We know that if young adults have 4 different careers experiences, they are more likely to have positive progressions, even more important if they are #neurodivergent.

A very special gathering with @LordMayorLeeds to celebrate the incredible leadership & contributions of women who have shaped Gipton & Harehills over the yrs.
It falls upon us all to recognise & celebrate women in our communities who don’t get the recognition they deserve. 💕
