What we’re about
The Angels of Freedom community group launched in December 2017 with the aims of providing compassionate support & increasing awareness of risks and vulnerabilities within the Leeds LGBTQ+ communities.
We provide positive opportunities to work within the community, and provide a constructive forum for engagement with organisations such as West Yorkshire Police, British Transport Police and Leeds City Council in addition to partnership working with agencies such as Samaritans Leeds, Forward Leeds and others providing support.
In this group we'll share opportunities to engage with activities led by our project along with those of our partners.

See all- Leeds LGBT+ Angels football sessionPowerleague Leeds Central, Leeds
The Angels of Freedom and the Leeds United Foundation have joined forces to bring you free weekly football fitness classes! Here's what you need to know:
• Everyone is invited to join, regardless of skill level or experience. If you're over 18 and new to the game, fret not, as you're more than welcome to come along.
• Led by LUFC enabled coaches, these sessions are all about teamwork, getting fit, and having fun. There's no competition, just a bunch of friendly folks working up a sweat on the pitch.
• No need to book in advance, just rock up on the day. But do make sure to wear comfy clothes that suit the weather, plus either trainers or football boots.
And, of course, don't forget your water bottle to keep you hydrated throughout the session.
If you're looking for more serious football action check out the awesome Yorkshire Terriers FC https://www.facebook.com/yterriersfc
