Blue Plaques Fund
Support Leeds' History – Join the Blue Plaques Fund Scheme!
Leeds Civic Trust’s Blue Plaques celebrate the city’s history, but we need your help to ensure their future! Our Blue Plaques Fund will raise money to install new plaques, restore existing ones, and promote Leeds’ incredible heritage.
Your support will help:
🔹 Fund plaques for worthy nominees who lack financial backing
🔹 Preserve and restore historic plaques across the city
🔹 Develop educational resources, including walking maps and digital guides
🔹 Create a lasting endowment to protect our plaques for generations
Donors who give at least £15/year or a one off donation of at least £30 receive:
- An exclusive 'I Support Leeds Blue Plaques' pin badge
- A free copy of 'Blue Plaques of Leeds' Volumes 1&2
- Invitations to exclusive blue plaque unveiling events, when available.
- Your name listed on our website recognising your contribution
