Welcome

Leeds Skeptics is a friendly group of rationalists and critical thinkers who like to get together to talk and be skeptical about things like homeopathy, creationism, psychics, aliens, alternative medicine, conspiracy theories, and what's going on in "real" science, medicine etc. More importantly we like to do this "in the Pub." You can find out more about us here.

To keep up with what is going on, join our mailing list or find us on Facebook or Twitter.
