SHAPING OUR COMMUNITY TOGETHER

LESLA Alliance is a registered charity in Long Eaton, strengthening community life through education, civic participation and purposeful community action.


We serve the wider Long Eaton community, bringing people together through educational events, volunteering opportunities and shared spaces that celebrate heritage, reduce isolation and encourage active participation in community life. 


Our work continues to honour and preserve the legacy of the Windrush generation and their descendants as an important part of Long Eaton’s story.

Who We're Here For

LESLA Alliance exists to benefit the Long Eaton community.


Our work includes celebrating and preserving the legacy of the Windrush generation and their descendants, supporting older people and those experiencing isolation, and encouraging young people and emerging community leaders to participate actively in community life.


Everyone is welcome in all that we do. Participation is never dependent on supporter status or ability to pay.
