About Us
Back in 2013, a few friends and I (Harry) held the first Leeds Language Exchange in a bar at Leeds University students’ Union.
I’d just returned from Spain and wanted to create a space where myself and others could practise speaking foreign languages freely, and in a welcoming, friendly environment.
This is still the idea which provides the motivation for our meetups, our charity work, and this website. Read our full story below, and also check out a recent radio interview on BBC Leeds with our Leeds Organiser, Rhea, here.
