This page is here to keep you informed about what’s happening in your neighbourhood and the work Leeds Federated is doing to deliver our services to you. Our aim is simple: to help people make a home, and we’re here to listen, learn and act on your views
You’ll find your Neighbourhood Plan here (just click or tap the image below)
Your plan has been created using your feedback from recent surveys. It highlights what’s working well, what needs attention, and the priorities you’ve told us matter most. We’ve also developed an Action Plan to show how we’ll deliver on these priorities.
This page is your hub for updates, news, and ways to get involved. Check out the newsfeed below for the latest, explore other pages for wider projects, and discover how you can share your ideas or join in.
Plus, a little bonus: every month, we’re giving away a £30 voucher to someone who interacts on the Your Voice site – whether that’s leaving a comment, completing a survey, or sharing something creative. So, get involved and have your say!
Little London sits just north of Leeds city centre and is known for its strong sense of community and diverse neighbourhoods. Residents enjoy being close to the city while still having access to local green spaces, community facilities and everyday amenities.
The area has a great mix of local shops and services, including the nearby Aldi at Meanwood Road, Morrisons at Merrion Centre and healthcare facilities such as the Woodhouse Medical Practice. Residents also benefit from local cafés, takeaways and community hubs across Little London and Woodhouse.
Little London is part of the Little London and Woodhouse ward. Your councillors, Javaid Akhtar, Eden Hills and Abigail Marshall Katung are active in supporting local initiatives and community projects across the area.
Getting around is easy with regular bus routes along Meanwood Road, Clay Pit Lane and Lovell Park Road, while Leeds city centre is within walking distance. The area is also well connected to the universities, hospitals and wider Leeds transport network.
Residents enjoy nearby green spaces including Lovell Park, Woodhouse Moor and the open spaces around Little London Community Centre. These spaces are popular for walking, relaxing and community events throughout the year.
Young people can access activities and support through local community organisations, youth programmes and nearby university outreach projects. Seasonal events, sports sessions and family activities regularly take place across the ward.
Stay active with nearby gyms and leisure facilities including The Edge sports centre and community fitness sessions held locally. Football, basketball and community wellbeing activities are popular across the area.
Little London has a fascinating history dating back to the 19th century. The area earned its name because its architecture and housing were once considered similar to parts of London. Today, Little London continues to evolve while maintaining its strong community identity and close connection to the city centre.
