At some point in each of our lives, we are likely to feel the impact of social isolation, poor health and mobility issues.<span>&nbsp; </span>In Leeds, we also have a number of vulnerable population groups including homeless people, disaffected young people, and refugees who often find it difficult to &ldquo;fit in&rdquo; with local communities. Fortunately, community groups across Leeds are working hard to address a range of health issues, from social and emotional wellbeing to mental and physical health</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: Times;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;"><strong><span style="font-family: Corbel;">By donating today, you could help to: </span></strong></p> <p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.25in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;quot;Courier New&amp;amp;quot;;"><span>o<span style="font: 7pt &amp;amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;amp;quot;;">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Provide healthy eating and exercise classes at a local community centre.</span></p> <p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.25in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;quot;Courier New&amp;amp;quot;;"><span>o<span style="font: 7pt &amp;amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;amp;quot;;">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Fund the travel for an innovative theatre programme that works within affected local communities to raise awareness of the issues and impact of bullying and ethnic prejudice. </span></p> <p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.25in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;quot;Courier New&amp;amp;quot;;"><span>o<span style="font: 7pt &amp;amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;amp;quot;;">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Supporting event sand projects which allow people from different backgrounds, and faiths to come together to socialise, learn more about each other, build trust and create harmony.</span></p> <p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.25in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;quot;Courier New&amp;amp;quot;;"><span>o<span style="font: 7pt &amp;amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;amp;quot;;">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">programmes that challenge them to use their talents to do, learn, and contribute more. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: Corbel;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
