Leeds Federated

Leeds Federated is a Housing Association managing around 4, 000 properties in Leeds, North Yorkshire and Wakefield areas.

Leeds Federated was formed in 1974 by a number of smaller associations coming together to form a 'federation' for the benefit of the community. The idea was that by working together they could achieve more than being separate organisations.
That philosophy has prevailed throughout Leeds Federated's history, with partnerships and joint working arrangements being a common feature of our operations over the years.

The Association grew quickly through the 1970s and early 1980s, acquiring mainly victorian terraced housing across the city. From the early 1990s, Leeds Federated concentrated on new build development, initially undertaken through Leeds Partnership Homes. Our 4000 homes are roughly half pre-1919 stock, and half new build.

Most of our homes are in Leeds, but through the 1990s the Association started developing outside Leeds and now has around 400 homes in Harrogate and 100 in Wakefield.
