Aire to There

We are currently recruiting for our Aire to There project!
This work is a continuation of the Represent project, with funding from Leeds Inspired.

Ten young people will undertake a paid traineeship to develop an audio walk for Leeds waterways. Over three days you will learn the local and international history of the Leeds Waterfront, uncover hidden stories, and use your voice to guide others by creating audio tracks for walking and boat tours.

Led by Joe Williams (founder of award-winning Leeds Black History Walks) and supported by historical researchers and Aire Ambassadors, you will pick the route, select the stories and perform the audio for the tours. This will be launched to the public in the summer with an outdoor event and exhibition. Furthermore, the audio walk will be available to download online.

Aire to There is presented through the partnerships of: Ignite Yorkshire, IVE, Heritage Corner, Canal Connections , and the Geraldine Connor Foundation.
