Leeds Green Activity Providers
Running Seeds is proud to be part of and support the Leeds Green Activity Provider network.
“To connect organisations in Leeds that deliver nature-based activities
to improve health and well-being.“
About
Running Seeds is an initiative created by Richard Warren.
Richard built his career in IT consultancy, leading projects at some of the world’s largest financial corporations and class-defining systems.
Now refocussed to help build communities through active lifestyles and coherent net zero steps. Utilising technology understanding, Agile delivery and commercial focus blended with UK Athletics and British Cycling licenses to personally deliver bespoke experiences.
There is no denying that I think a little differently. I prioritise the currency of community good over sterling.
Business engagements enable a free reign of pro-bono time to flexibly support community needs. Currently providing 3hrs to communities for every hour billed elsewhere.
I do not share the view that the only reputable structure is non-profit/charitable – and believe we need to champion direct positve community steps that private business can deliver.
Please get in touch if your business requires initiative delivery relating to walking, cycling or running to build a healthy and climate appreciative workplace community. This may include technical, Agile business analysis or net zero plan consultancy.
Collaborations with the 3rd sector are also encouraged to help construct and deliver funded community initiatives with health and technology.

Support
Sometimes, that little bit of support can motivate or even help towards my costs such as first aid training/supplies, boots/trainers/equipment, technology subscriptions and travel. That’s around £2,000/year baseline just to help people.
