So far we've been on 14 West Yorkshire Walks in places across the region including:

• Allerton
• Bradford Top of Town
• Chapeltown (Leeds)
• Saltaire
• Gipton (Leeds)
• Morley
• Huddersfield town centre, led by an asylum seeker
• Headingley to Chapeltown (Leeds)
• Northcliffe Woods Park (Bradford)
• Harehills (Leeds) and Manningham (Bradford), both aiming to stimulate effective local action on greenspace deprivation in ethnically diverse urban areas for reasons of public health and social justice
• Huddersfield, looking at citizen-led arts and cultural spaces
• Mabgate and Chapeltown (Leeds), focusing on the effect of gentrification in independent cultural spaces.

People invite us to go for a walk with them round a place they care about.

Going for a walk is a great way of making connections and sharing knowledge and experiences. It has a different feel to sitting in a room talking, even if it were the same group of people.

Each walk has a very loose structure devised in collaboration with the hosts. The basic format is a circular walk of around 40 minutes, stopping off at places suggested by the local host for short discussions, which can be, but don't have to be, in response to questions such as "Why do we build houses?". Things that come up in the discussion are gathered along the way and in a follow up question (which is always the same).

West Yorkshire Walks were initiated by Rochyne Delaney McNulty, Neil Mckenna and Andrew Wilson.

The West Yorkshire Walks in 2021 were supported by the Andrew Wainwright Reform Trust. The Trust works for "a just and democratic society and to redress political and social injustices... the Trust will prioritise organisations that are ineligible for charitable funding because they are considered too political or radical".
