Summer is drawing to a close, and another new month is here.
After six long weeks of the summer holidays, children across Leeds are finally heading back to school for a new academic year from this week… but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still lots of exciting events in the social calendar to be getting up to now that ‘normality’ has resumed.
If you’re finding it a bit tricky to pick what to do though, we’ve chosen a few of the best bits for another edition of our ‘what’s on’ guide.
Here’s some of our recommendations.
