New Queer Guide to Leeds

A resource created by students, for students

The University of Leeds LGBTQ+ Society has recently launched a Queer Guide to Leeds - a resource created by students, for students, to help queer people navigate and make the most of our wonderful city.

Whether you're new to Leeds or have been here for a while, the guide brings together recommendations, information and local knowledge to help students find LGBTQ+ spaces, communities, support and opportunities across the city.

Moving to a new city can be exciting, but finding your community can sometimes take time.

This guide aims to make that journey a little easier, highlighting places and resources that help LGBTQ+ students feel connected, supported and at home in Leeds.

What's inside?

The guide introduces some of the many queer-friendly spaces, venues and organisations across the city, helping students discover:

• LGBTQ+ social spaces and nightlife

• Community groups and support organisations

• Inclusive cafés, venues and local businesses

• Cultural events and opportunities to get involved

• Useful resources for wellbeing and support

It's designed to help you build connections, explore the city with confidence and find places where they can feel welcome and supported.

By Students, for Students

Created by members of the LGBTQ+ Society, the guide draws on personal experiences and local knowledge to showcase the diverse communities that make Leeds such a vibrant place to live and study.
