Dwayne and Bronagh were delighted to hear Wan and Claire's presentation at this event on Wednesday. A wonderful and inspirational story. A reminder of how powerful #welcome #hospitality and #sanctuary expressed through community sport can be for community cohesion here in Leeds
Great to hear from Claire and Wan and learn about being a Sports Club of Sanctuary and the Battle of Holbeck Moor. “To say you are anti racism, “anti” implies action.” @Claire21221 | @wanabdullah_uk | #YandHAntiRacismInSport

A fantastic way to mark Leeds' anti-racist history 🔵 If you want to learn more about Henry 'Box' Brown's story, and the history of Leeds' links with the slave trade, check out this podcast from the LCI archive...
🔵We are pleased to say that our 199th blue plaque for Abolitionists in Leeds has been permanently affixed to Lyddon Hall on the University of Leeds Campus. This plaque was unveiled jointly with @UniversityLeeds as part of black history month.

We're still buzzing with ideas after the Hook Lecture! Richard's talk has sparked conversations on racism, justice, and the church's part to play. It was fantastic to catch up with the LCI community. Thanks for joining us! @leedsminster @CTBI @religionpublife @abigailmashall
