Celebrating Local Communities

We’re here whether you Work Rest or Play in your local area; currently focusing on Kirklees, Wakefield, Barnsley and Leeds – more broadly West and South Yorkshire.

We connect and promote the network of villages, towns, and cities that make up our vibrant local communities.

If at any time you need help. Use the chat function on the bottom right hand side. It is a person that answers – not a robot. If we are offline or don’t respond, we might be in meetings or away from our desk and will respond by email.

We are online - if you need help, use the chat function on the bottom right hand side - we will reply by email.
