Leeds has a new landmark 😍 and its meaning is a powerful one!

Look closely at the impressive new ‘Ribbons’ sculpture by @LeedsPlayhouse and you’ll see the names of no less than 383 women.

Each of them has done something inspiring, and are now etched into #Leeds’ history👏

We were honoured to have our Theatre of Sanctuary status reconfirmed in a ceremony with partners from across the city.

We are just as proud as when we became the world’s first Theatre of Sanctuary almost ten years ago in 2014.
