About

Lincoln Green and St James sit just east of Leeds city centre, with pockets of terraced streets and post-war council housing that form the backbone of the neighbourhood. Lincoln Green includes the estate that gives the area its name and a handful of community centres and primary schools that serve nearby streets. Local shops and short parades provide daily groceries and takeaways, and bus routes run frequently into the centre, making the area well connected for commuters and students alike.

St James is best known for the St James’s University Hospital campus, commonly called "Jimmy’s" by residents, which shapes much of the local landscape and employment. The ward also contains social projects, health services and small green spaces used by local clubs and families. Community groups work alongside statutory services to run youth and learning programmes, and a steady flow of patients, staff and visitors keeps the streets active throughout the day.
