Leeds-Dortmund - German language initiative

Published on June 20, 2025

January 2025:  Geoff Tranter, born in Leeds but a long-term resident of Leeds’s twin city, Dortmund, has developed a Beginners’ German Course for English-speaking visitors from Leeds to the Twin City.  The course is built around the needs of a British visitor to Germany and presents practical and cultural information about the city of Dortmund.  His work was generously funded by the local Government of North Rhein-Westphalia. Recent promotion of the course attracted interest from over 200 citizens of Leeds.
