KIDZ KLUB - LEEDS

Kidz Klub Leeds exists to promote and work to improve the welfare of the children and communities of inner-city Leeds. We aim to confront child poverty and to encourage children's mental, spiritual, moral and physical development to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals. We work in partnership with churches and other groups across the city.
