Burial of a time capsule at Leeds Bradford Airport

Published: 29 August 2025

On Monday 11 August, Horsforth Town Council had the honour of attending the burial of a time capsule at Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) to mark the opening of the new terminal regeneration project. Chair of the Council Cllr Gill Garvani, Cllr Dave Brosnan and administrative assistant Steph White joined CEO of LBA Vincent Hodder, members of the local community , partner organisations and players from Leeds Rhinos and Bradford Bulls who helped seal and bury the capsule.

We included a piece of artwork that was created by local child Lucia Heppell-Cruzado at last year's Walk of Art event. Her mother Esther got in touch to say Lucia was delighted her picture was chosen. She has been talking about it non-stop since she found out. It was an honour Lucia!
