Community Advocacy Surgeries
Our Community Advocacy team run a number of surgeries for people who don’t speak English as their first language. They are held in different venues across Leeds. They are staffed by our Community Advocates.
Between them, our Advocates speak at least a dozen different languages. These include Arabic, Urdu, Punjabi, Czech and Russian.
*UPDATE: Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we will not be running any of our surgeries until further notice. We will update this page when the situation changes (28/09/2020)*
