Why Leeds11?
This figure represents the percentage of staff who have currently declared they are from a Black or Minority Ethnic (BME) background.
We want to provide a positive, supportive and active network for staff that brings together people who identify with a minority ethnic group. The Leeds11 Network exists to provide an environment for BME staff to socialise and receive mutual support.
Please contact leeds11@leeds.ac.uk if you would like further information or if you have any queries.
