Up for Yorkshire Community Transport - Volunteer Driver Recruitment Campaign
published on 29th Aug 2023
From Up for Yorkshire:
We are writing to you from the local charity ‘Up for Yorkshire’. Our overarching aim is to enable the voluntary and community sector to grow and to flourish, whilst also supporting an inclusive community for everyone.
Community Transport provides flexible and accessible community-led solutions in response to unmet local transport needs. Sustained by an incredible team of volunteer drivers, our aim is to support individuals to stay independent, participate in their communities and access vital public services and employment.
Since Covid, our volunteer driver numbers have dropped by over 50%, and like so much of the voluntary sector across the country, volunteer recruitment is a challenge. We are wanting to offer additional opportunities for access to Community Transport, but to do this, we need to recruit more volunteer drivers, to help meet the demand. We have attached to this email, the digital versions of some of the hard-copy materials that are currently on the way to you by post. If you could share this via your local online platforms, that would be fantastic.
If you have any questions, would like to discuss anything further, or would like to arrange for a member of our team to come and see you, or for you to come and see us, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
You can find out more about us by visiting our website: www.upforyorkshire.org.uk

Waste collection strike action disruption
published on 8th Jun 2023 (updated on 4th Jul 2023)
North Yorkshire Council have issued the following information regarding waste collections this week:
As we are on residual waste this week, resources have been redeployed to ensure that all of these rounds are completed as planned. This means that there are fewer garden waste rounds operating and we do anticipate some roll-over which may continue through the week.
Where there is rollover, residents will be advised to leave their green bin out and that it will be collected first thing the next day. We will be updating the website and social media throughout the day.
All commercial waste, street cleansing and grounds maintenance rounds have been deployed as scheduled.
