A CHARITY which supports women affected by sexual violence has objected to applications for renewals of sex establishment licences from two lap dance clubs in the same Leeds city centre street.

Liberte and The Purple Door - both based on York Place - have applied to Leeds City Council’s licensing sub committee for licence renewals “for the provision of sexual entertainment in the form of lap dancing.”

In two letters objecting to licence renewals for both clubs, a spokeswoman for the Support After Rape and Sexual Violence (SARSVL) charity stated: “This club is located in the centre of the city in the legal district close to lawyers premises used by women including SARSVL clients.
