Leeds Young Friends Club.

Hide Profile

The Leeds Young Friends Club began in 1919. Its activities included rambles, visits to sites of special interest in the area, talks and conferences, swimming, tennis, dances and regular visits to local Friends Meetings. The club continued to be active after the outbreak of the Second World War and organised a varied programme until 1943. However the nucleus of friends who had grown up in the area and kept the club alive broke down as the war progressed and the club was wound up in 1944.
