A huge thank you to Helen and Sally from Leeds Libraries for coming down to the Old Fire Station and delivering a fantastic session for our Tech Talk & Toast group this Friday.

Following our recent project exploring East Leeds and its history, it was great to learn more about the amazing resources available through Leodis and to delve deeper into the stories, people and places that have shaped our local community.

The session sparked plenty of conversation, memories and interest, and was enjoyed by everyone who attended.

Thank you again, Helen and Sally, for sharing your knowledge and helping us continue our journey of discovering East Leeds' fascinating past. πŸ“šπŸ˜οΈπŸ”₯
