Barca-Leeds is a member of the Leeds Youth Alliance (LYA), which was established to offer services to young people across Leeds. The Alliance delivers local groups, youth support and activity services to help young people develop into successful and confident adults.
The service is fully integrated with the Leeds City Council Youth Work service to ensure that young people living in the most disadvantaged areas of Leeds have access to high quality youth work provision.
The many partner organisations that make up the alliance are rooted within their local communities and provide many different services such as skills development, fun activities and employment and training programmes.
The Leeds Youth Alliance values the voices of young people who take part, their thoughts and decisions are used to help change the services they engage with to better suit both their needs and the needs of their communities.
If you would like to know more about LYA, please contact Laura Whitaker (Operations Director, Children, Young People and Families).
We are proud to be working with a range of partners across the city. These include: The Cardigan Centre, Chapel Town Youth Development, Getaway Girls, Hamara, LS-Ten, LS14 Trust, New Wortley Community Centre, Re-establish and The Youth Association.
