L’Alliance Française de Leeds is a charity promoting French language and culture and is therefore looking for trustees.
Any skills are welcome, and as a small charity, you will be able to be part of its development, providing precious pieces of advice for the Director.
If you are a francophile (no need to speak French) and wish to be part of this French adventure, please contact Manon at director@afleeds.org.uk
