Community Empowerment Programme
Celebrating the Heart of Change: Afrikindness Community Leaders Recognised for Their Commitment By The Lord Mayor of Leeds
Nine months into the Community Empowerment Programme, a heartfelt celebration was held to recognise the remarkable leaders working behind the scenes to drive real change across Leeds’ diverse communities. These leaders have shown unwavering commitment—coaching parents, mentoring young people, facilitating training sessions, and serving as a crucial link between services and families.
From churches to community groups, schools to living rooms, they’ve taken the training they received and transformed it into action. Action that builds trust, addresses inequality, and strengthens protective factors for children and families.
