What's On
Leeds Branch meetings are usually held on the first Tuesday of the month at 19:30, we will try to wrap business up in about 90 minutes. The meetings will follow an agenda to allow business to be conducted swiftly, but they are not overly formal. We use a different venue each month and try to cover the whole Leeds area. Leeds CAMRA social events and other local CAMRA events within easy reach of Leeds will be included on this page once details are known.
Suggestions for branch socials and meeting venues welcome Contact Us.
