Ellie MacDonald, Founder and CEO of HelloHope, said: “Leeds Wellbeing Week is swiftly approaching and is already creating a real buzz across the city!

It’s going to be a fantastic week where there is genuinely something for everyone to try/learn and enjoy. Wellbeing is something we need to prioritise so we can reduce people reaching crisis point, so we’re encouraging people to bring their colleagues, friends, family and neighbours and try various events and see what works best for them.”

Leeds Wellbeing Week 2026 will shine a spotlight on the city’s wellbeing offer, celebrating local expertise, creativity and community spirit while helping make support more visible and accessible to all.

Individuals and businesses are encouraged to book onto events across the week.
