This year, we’re taking the Big Leeds Chat on tour throughout September and October and there are lots of ways to get involved.
The Big Leeds Chat usually takes place as one big event in Kirkgate Market but this year we’re going out into our Leeds communities to speak to people about what matters to them.
What is the Big Leeds Chat all about?
The Big Leeds Chat is 2 months of Leeds listening to people of Leeds. There are local events taking place across the city where senior decision makers in Health and Care want to hear directly from citizens. How has it been for the last 18 months, what can be improved in your area and what do you like where you live? Its over to you to have your say!
Host your own chat
We would love to hear from community groups who might like to have their own Big Leeds Chat. The idea is simple, if you have a session/event planned with your service users then, let us know and we’ll get the decision maker to come and make sure your community is heard.
If you want to find out more about what’s happening near you phone the team 0113 898 0035, email [email protected] or visit www.bigleedschat.co.uk.
