Horsforth Community Assets Project - HCAP

We are lucky in Horsforth to have so many Welcome Spaces during the winter months. Welcome Spaces are where people can gather in a warm, safe place to enjoy a free cuppa and a chat. Some Welcome Spaces also offer food and activities.

Here is a list of the Welcome Spaces in Horsforth, more information can be found on the Leeds City Council website:

We would recommend checking details of Welcome Spaces with each organisation / venue prior to travel 💛

It was wonderful to attend the reopening of the Ballroom above Horsforth Library recently, what a truly amazing space we have available to us.

If you missed the event don't worry there are two further events you can pop-along to and talk to the team about how you can access and hire the space. See posters below for more details.

Wednesday 8th October (1:00-7:00pm) - Public Open Day
Wednesday 28th October (11:30am-3:00pm) - Community Open Day

Please note the change of venue for tomorrow's Farmers Market!

As a result of the bad weather forecast for this Saturday we're moving our October market to indoors at St Margaret's Church (LS18 5LA), do come and find us!

We recently delivered the Leeds Together Fund for Horsforth, giving small grants for neighbourhood-based activities that bring the community together 💛

Our community came up with some fantastic activities including the Cragg Community Day, Creative Art Workshop in the Japanese Garden and Drury Field Community Sports Day.

Voluntary Action Leeds have produced a city-wide report of the 140 events which took place, which brought communities together and were attended by over 6,000 people. You can watch a summary video of the success of this fund on their website 👇
