Leeds will be a healthy and caring city for everyone.
This is a plan for the city of Leeds, owned and driven forward by organisations and people working in every part of the city.
Our shared goal is that Leeds reaches its full potential, for everyone living, working, studying or visiting here, it really is the best city.
Our Four Ambitions are the priorities we’ve chosen to achieve our mission of reducing poverty and inequality. The ambitions sharpen our focus on the things that will make the biggest difference to improving people’s lives in Leeds over the next decade.


Leeds will be a place where we reduce poverty and inequality by creating growth in our economy that works for all.

Leeds will be a welcoming, safe and clean city where people have the power to make the changes that are important to them.

Leeds will be the UK’s first net zero and nature positive city, rapidly reducing carbon emissions and restoring nature.
