The Jamaica Society Leeds, established in 1977 by a group of six first-generation Jamaicans, is a prominent community organisation dedicated to promoting and preserving Jamaican culture and heritage within Leeds. Operating from Jamaica House, the Society focuses on advocacy for Caribbean communities, hosts annual events such as a Charity Ball and Thanksgiving Service, and provides care and support for its members. As they approach the 60th anniversary of Jamaican independence, the Society is committed to engaging younger audiences and safeguarding the rich history of the Jamaican community in Leeds. Through various initiatives like the Eulogy Project and the Out of Many Festival, the Jamaica Society Leeds aims to celebrate the contributions of pioneering Jamaicans while ensuring that their legacy is remembered and cherished.
