Getting to the centre

It’s great to help the environment where we can. Whilst there is unlimited off street parking near the centre, please do consider coming by public transport or car sharing. Leeds railway station is about  1.2 miles away and takes just under 30 minutes to walk. There are fairly frequent buses from the city centre too. If you would like to offer a lift or would appreciate one, please say so on the registration form and we will do our best to put you in touch with each other.  Click here for our Location on google maps.
