UK arrests & raids, possibly climate action related

One address in Sholebroke Avenue, Leeds was visited by police looking
for specific people identified as having taken part in kayak training
run by the Sailboat Project in North Yorkshire in April. The training was publicly advertised and well attended. The police questioned one individual. Questions included:
- what other groups are they part of
- why were they on the training
- who else was on the training
- were they planning to take action against power stations
The previous day (Tuesday 25th), police searched the premises of a
different organisation not involved in boats, but with links to various gatherings. Nothing was taken. The warrant was under the Terrorism Act and is possibly related.
We are not aware of any other contact by the police, but plenty of other people were on the training...
