Branch Diary and Local CAMRA Events
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. Leeds CAMRA social events and other local CAMRA events within easy reach of Leeds will be included on this page once details are known.
