What is WYLDA?

WYLDA, the West Yorkshire Local Development Agencies partnership, is a structured network with full and associated membership. Full membership is open to third sector organisations and networks that deliver a significant proportion of infrastructure support in West Yorkshire. Our associated members are those third sector organisations and statutory partners who fall outside the full membership criteria.

WYLDA acts as the third sector infrastructure forum for West Yorkshire. WYLDA operates at a sub-regional and district level to support good communication between the third sector infrastructure organisations and to develop joint working opportunities to maximise resources across West Yorkshire.

WYLDA also links with regional bodies to develop partnerships and provides representation on external bodies including the Leeds City Region Task Group.
