Chapel FM
Chapel FM is an arts centre that runs East Leeds FM, a community radio station based in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It initially started in 2003 as East Leeds FM when Heads Together Productions, a Huddersfield-based community arts organisation, worked with local East Leeds high school John Smeaton Academy to form the project. In 2014, they acquired the Seacroft Chapel, an old church, to establish the Chapel FM arts centre, the only one in East Leeds. The station allows young people from all around East Leeds and interested adults to air broadcasts.

Seacroft
Seacroft is an outer-city suburb/township consisting mainly of council estate housing covering an extensive area of east Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It lies in the LS14 Leeds postcode area, around 4 miles (6.4 km) east of Leeds city centre.
It sits in the Killingbeck & Seacroft ward of Leeds City Council and Leeds East parliamentary constituency.
The population of the corresponding Leeds City Ward was nearly 18,000 in 2001 and fell to 14,426 in 2011. The name is often used as a catch-all for Seacroft and the neighbouring areas of Whinmoor and Swarcliffe, other large east Leeds council estates which merge into each other.
Seacroft includes one of the largest council estates in the country and Yorkshire's second-largest council estate, after Bransholme in Kingston upon Hull. The latter, however, was part of Humberside county from 1974 to 1996. Because of its size, Seacroft has often been referred to as a town. The original vision, envisaged by the council, was that it would be a 'Town within the City Limits', and the Seacroft Civic Centre was often referred to as the 'Seacroft Town Centre'.
