Street Angels Leeds - we help to make Leeds city centre a safer place to be on a night out. We help people stay safe, and we reduce crime. Look out for us!
Anyone can apply to be a Leeds street angel (age 18+). If you'd like to have a totally different Friday night out, just contact Katie on [email protected] to arrange to have a chat and join us on patrol to see what it's like with wings on!
We had 2 new Angels out with us for the first time last night. Within 15 minutes Anna and Caroline had dived in offering care for a young lady who had 1 (or 2) too many Espresso Martinis.
They loved being out on patrol - "I feel like I've been on a night out" said Anna at 4am.
I joined @LdsStreetAngels on a patrol round Leeds and met the @stjohnambulance team, two amazing groups of people on standby to help make nights out that little bit safer

Had such a great time joining @LdsStreetAngels on their patrol and learning more about the amazing volunteer work they do around Leeds city centre! Thanks again for letting me come along!! #leeds#volunteers#helpinghand
Our angels will be on patrol until the small hours again tonight. It's getting chilly out there, so take care of each other on your nights out and stick together. See you later Leeds!
We are in the Leeds University newspaper - thank you Emily for this great write up. It was fab to have you on patrol with us. @TheGryphonLeeds https://t.co/sEkleQGjm2
A busy weekend for our angels Mollie, Will, Keith, Helen and Ian, looking after those who were unwell and unstable on their feet. Great to be joined by journalism student Emily and lovely to reconnect with other volunteers and workers in the city.
The awesome @LdsStreetAngels are out in the city again this evening (payday Saturday!) from 10pm til 3am, providing compassionate support to anyone who’s become at risk during a night out in the city - say hello if you see these incredible volunteers ❤️ #BeSafeFeelSafe#Leeds
Happy to bring you the news that our team of angels will be out in Leeds tonight from 10pm until late, looking after those who need our support. Take care of your mates this weekend!
We're delighted to let you know we've appointed a new Leeds Street Angels co-ordinator - Ian. He'll be taking over from Katie who after seven brilliant years of leadership has stepped down to continue her studies. Thank you Katie and welcome Ian!
This #VolunteersWeek we want to thank all the Leeds street angels who have gladly given up their night's sleep to keep other people safe in our city's nightlife. So many volunteers are part of our story, thank you all!
We're back and very glad to be part of the big-hearted team which cares about our city and the people in it. Thank you to our friends and supporters for helping us be here.
Big thank you to @stmattsleeds and @LdsStreetAngels for been part of @thykingdom_come Prayer Lunch. Good to be able to pray for the night time economy and for the work Street Angel's are doing there as well as the wellbeing of our city as #Coronavirus restrictions ease.
Sadly we've had to suspend our patrols due to lack of funds, but we're passionate about keeping people safe in the Leeds nightlife and we'll be back as soon as we can. We're seeking funding and have a crowdfunder here if you'd like to support us. https://t.co/9RW0lns0LY
This Thursday 13th May, 12:30 - 13:30.
@thykingdom_come Prayer Lunch hosted by @stmattsleeds.
We are looking forward to praying for the wellbeing of the city as Covid restriction ease and for the night time economy as we hear from @LdsStreetAngels.

...but the future of our project is becoming uncertain because we're low on funds. If anyone knows of grants we could apply for, or if you feel able to contribute to our crowdfunder we'd be really grateful. Thank you! https://t.co/9RW0lns0LY (2/2)
