Help make Leeds a Liveable City

Would you like to help make Leeds a more liveable city?

We have identified an area of the city, currently dominated by roads, that needs to be improved and we would like your help to redesign it.  The area is the Eastside of Leeds – the area on the Eastern fringe of Leeds City Centre.

We are inviting ideas from everyone – you do not need to be an expert -to come forward with ideas.  The best ideas will win a share of a prize fund of £2000.

If you would like to know how you can apply to participate, please download the competition guidelines here.

Ideas must be received by 17th April and we ask you to tell us that you plan to enter the competition by 27th March.

Good Luck!
