Citizens UK organises communities to act together for power, social justice and the common good.

We are Leeds Citizens, a Citizens UK Chapter. Our alliance is formed of faith, education and community organisations, working together for the common good of Leeds.

We develop the leadership capacity of our members so they can hold politicians and other decision-makers to account on the issues that matter to them.

Community organising is democracy in action: winning victories that change lives and transform communities.
