Across the world, communities are under threat as city "regeneration schemes" favour faceless, sterile corporate takeover and overpriced yuppie flats over and above issues such as community, social housing and diversity.
Leeds is no exception as PFIs and similar privatised "regeneration" programmes threaten communities across the city.
We want to show that communities throughout our city are not prepared to lie down and accept this!
For the weekend of 11th-12th April we would like to invite you to join in putting on an event in a family friendly occupied/reclaimed/squatted space in Leeds City Centre, featuring:
- Free Café – Hot and cold drinks, Hot food and cakes served throughout the day. (small donations to cover costs welcome!)
-Free Shop – Clothes, books and toys free for anyone to take.
-Loads of information on housing issues in Leeds and throughout the world, highlighting peoples' struggles against corporate takeover and state control of their homes and lives. Practical advice about alternative housing options in Leeds.
- Acoustic open mike on saturday night
...but most importantly the space will be open for whatever you want it to be: an opportunity for films, displays, art, workshops... to get involved give us an email on
leedssquat@googlemail.com or call 07526 261061.
The venue will be an easy walk from Leeds city centre / train station / bus station - for location please call 07526 261061 or email leedssquat@googlemail.com.
