Based in different locations over Leeds:
Patrick Studios, St Mary's Lane, Mabgate (the one I visited)
The organisation also takes on temporary spaces at reduced rates by offering to landlords with empty buildings that they open up studio space there for a while. This works because the organisation is a charity it means that the landlord can pay less (to the government) than he would normally have to pay for having an empty building.
Patrick Studio's seems like a friendly environment to work within for a range of practicing artists. The space however is mostly available for people more like fine artists rather than graphic designers who can perhaps make a better/ more regular wage.
While visiting I picked up a couple of lovely looking publications to hopefully learn more about the place.
This is a scan from one of the publications I picked up, it shows the communal space where artists meet and students are also allowed to use the facilities here, the macs and the printers, and tea & coffee making facilities.
