HEART

Carmel Smickersgill, Tours & Activities Editor

HEART is an arts, community and enterprise centre run by the people of Headingly in Leeds, but serving a much wider community. They regularly host live music, workshops, community and arts events as well as encouraging a culture of enterprise for the good of the community.

They also have a particularly lovely plant shop round the back as well which, if the delicious food in the cafe, great beer and interesting events don’t grab you, is definitely worth checking out.
