Leeds Community Foundation

In this episode we discuss how local communities have been affected by the pandemic, our response through our Resilience Fund and the impact that has had on the grassroots communities we work alongside.

We're joined by Nathanya Laurent of Leeds South and East Foodbank and Stef Gascoigne of RJC Dance, two Community Organisations who received funding, who share their experiences since the start of their pandemic and how they have adapted to continue to support their communities.

Leeds South and East Foodbank provide emergency support to local residents experience food poverty.

RJC Dance is the leading inclusive Black dance organisation in the North empowering young people and adults through movement.
