In a child friendly city our vision is for all children and young people in Leeds to have access to a wide range of rich and diverse cultural and sporting activities, to make Leeds the best city for young people to grow up in.
Breeze is a young person focused brand for 0 to 19 year olds in Leeds. Breeze offers opportunities, information and discounted access to a broad range of cultural and sporting activities, events and services in an inclusive, safe, fun, creative, and inspiring way. Delivering programmes and events since 2004, Breeze has built a quality assured service, recognised as a safe and reliable provider, and is a staple of Leeds’s young people’s offering.
Breeze offer specific relaxed sessions for children with additional needs at events such as Breeze Summer, The Christmas Experience, and more!
BreezeLeeds.org is the website for all children and young people aged 0-19 from Leeds (and their families) who are looking for positive things to do. Find out what great things you can do across Leeds on our Things To Do page or take a look at our All thing Breeze page to find out our projects and events.
Although BreezeLeeds.org is run by Leeds City Council the information included here comes from all sorts of organisations and partners working positively with children, young people and their families in Leeds, not just the Council.
With any activity, we would suggest that parents do checks on the environment, quality and staff delivering the activities to make their own judgement as to whether this is suitable and safe for their individual child’s needs.
Breeze also organises lots of events – like Breeze Summer, Breeze Presents ‘Child Friendly Leeds Live’ , Halloween events, The Christmas Experience at Lotherton, and many other opportunities for children and young people.
Pyramid run collaborative art groups for people with and without learning disabilities to come together to produce large-scale work for public exhibition and performance. We work in a wide range of artforms including visual art, music and drama.
