About this Event
Join us for food, conversation and creative activities as we launch the Feeding Futures of Leeds Manifesto.
The Manifesto calls for a more inclusive, healthy and caring Leeds City Centre, where parents can safely feed and look after their children. It was created through a series of creative workshops at Leeds Art Gallery, where members of Bosom Buddies breastfeeding peer support group and young women from the South Leeds-based Shine Project, alongside members of the public, shared their practical ideas for how the city centre could be made more welcoming for families.
The ten points of the Manifesto have been incorporated into a floor flag by designer Sally Sutherland. Unlike traditional flags flown high on poles, a floor flag lies on the ground, creating an inviting space for gathering, thinking, talking, and connecting. The Floor Flag will provide a focal point for the launch and subsequently remain in Leeds Art Gallery, inspiring change towards safer, healthier, and more inclusive urban environments.
We hope that you can join us at this informal event, where we will present the manifesto and, over lunch, invite you to discuss your own experiences of and aspirations for Leeds’s public realm. Children are, of course, welcome!
