Holbeck Neighbourhood Forum Re-designation
The Holbeck Neighbourhood Forum was designated on 27th March 2014. A forum designation lasts for five years, therefore the forum has applied to the Leeds City Council to be formally re-designated. Re-designation will enable us to continue to supporting the implementation of the Holbeck Neighbourhood Plan. Leeds City Council are publicising our application to be re-designated and seeking comments between Wednesday 14 October and Wednesday 9 December 2020. You can read the application in the document below. You can submit your comments by completing the online survey or by emailing [email protected]. Members of Leeds City Council’s neighbourhood planning team are willing to discuss the neighbourhood plan or the forum application over the phone at 0113 37 87260.
Re-designation will mean that we can continue the work we’re doing in the area to ensure that the neighbourhood plan policies are being used in decision making and to commence a number of the projects in the neighbourhood plan.”

Why do we need a plan?
Holbeck has gone through many changes in its history. From its origins as a small village built around the ancient Holbeck Moor, it grew massively to become a booming industrial area. However, in the 20th Century industry went into sharp decline and ever since, Holbeck has struggled with a legacy of complex environmental, social and economic problems. Since 2012 local residents have been working hard on the Holbeck Neighbourhood Plan, which aims to tackle these issues and encourage positive developments such as the recent housing constructions, which are helping to regenerate the area.
We want Holbeck to have:
- Good quality and affordable housing
- A wide range of shops and services that suit local needs.
- A safe attractive environment
- Thriving local businesses
- Better connections for pedestrians cyclists and public transportin the area between Holbeck and the city centre and adjacent neighbourhoods.
Our Plan supports all of this by including planning policies that will be used to help decide planning applications in our area. The Council must take our Plan into account when making decisions.
