People

We are looking at the issues surrounding poverty and inequality, its impacts on health and how we can improve this, how we can support businesses to create more better paid, secure jobs, and make the most of training and education in the city to meet local needs.

Place

We will make our places work by putting people first. We will create a city where you don’t need a car, and deliver jobs and homes in the right places, ensuring our city and local centres thrive and build resilience for the future.

Productivity

We can improve productivity in Leeds and enable businesses to innovate and grow. We are looking closely at how we can continue to build the profile of Leeds for the region and the UK.
