There appears to be only one active regional group - West Midlands not even one in London.

Why is that? No KC community spirit?

A couple of years ago (about 6 from memory) myself n another forum user attempted to and sadly didnt succeed with setting up something in Leeds.

Good luck tho if you choose to put in time to set something up x

Thanks for the response Space Cadet. It would be interesting to know why both your efforts never succeeded in Leeds. Was there no demand for it?

No point in creating Groups if there is no demand or support for them from the KC community.

No details of any Leeds group on the forum just the following five groups -
Manchester
Scotland
Wales
East Midlands
West Midlands

Thats sad but well done for trying. I cannot find anything on the site here about it did you not get any support from the charity as its one of their aims and objectives.
