Help represent the third sector – Leeds Health and Wellbeing Workforce Indicators 2025

Contribute workforce data on behalf of your organisation by Friday 11 July 2025.

Your help will ensure that we capture and represent the Leeds Third Sector Health and Care workforce in a new dataset: Leeds Health and Wellbeing Workforce Indicators 2025.

Leeds Health and Care Academy (LHCA) is collating this data to look at health and wellbeing indicators for the whole of the Leeds Health and Care workforce – of which the third sector is a crucial part!

This is part of Forum Central’s ongoing ambition to ensure the third sector is visible at city-wide level. To better understand the composition of the sector, in order to better represent its workforce and better equip the sector to meet the needs of its people.

Please can you help by completing the following spreadsheet template: HWI_Template_Third_Sector (excel spreadsheet download)

Once complete, please email it to workforce@forumcentral.org.uk to be shared with the Leeds Health and Care Academy Workforce Planning Team. 

How to submit your data:

• Download the Leeds Health & Wellbeing Workforce Indicator template spreadsheet above.
• Fill in your organisation name (this is so they can ensure there are no duplicates and contact you with any queries).
• Fill in the numbers of employees for each indicator section – this includes how many people are based in Leeds, to help you work that out there is a sheet which tells you whether a post code is classed as Leeds or not, simply paste in your employees’ post codes.
• Save your edited spreadsheet and attach it to an email and send to workforce@forumcentral.org.uk. This information will be shared with the Leeds Health and Care Academy Workforce planning team.
