What did we learn at the Big Leeds Chat 2021?
A collection of conversations about what matters to people in Leeds in terms of staying healthy and happy two years on from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic
Introduction
The Big Leeds Chat is a key event in the diary for all the people involved in planning health and care services. This is an opportunity to go out into all the local communities in Leeds, listen to people and understand how we become the best city for health and wellbeing.
The 10 Big Leeds Chat statements
Through our discussions with people across Leeds, ten key ideas emerged for how Leeds can be a healthier city for all.
Part 1: Decision makers’ ideas for change
The Big Leeds Chat isn’t just about listening – most importantly, it’s about taking action based on what people in Leeds have told us. With this in mind, following on from their Big Leeds Chat we asked decision makers what their initial ideas were to make Leeds a happier and healthier city.
