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!
Oakwood and Roundhay sit to the north east of Leeds, centred around the iconic Oakwood Clock and the expansive Roundhay Park. Known for their welcoming atmosphere and leafy streets, these neighbourhoods combine a strong community feel with easy access to green space and city life.

Popular local favourites include Roundhay Park’s lakes and Canal Gardens, Tropical World, and the bustling cafés around Oakwood Clock.
