Got good news? A story tip? A strong opinion about the correct order of the two Yorks? We read every message, usually with a brew.
Whether it's a new café opening, a neighbour doing something brilliant, a wedding proposal on the city walls or a correction to something we got wrong: we want to hear it.
Fill this in and it lands with a real human in York. We aim to reply within a couple of days, faster if you mention biscuits.
No, and honestly, that's the whole joke. This is a website about York, England: the original York, founded in 71 AD, the city New York was named after in 1664. If you arrived here looking for Manhattan, stay a while anyway. Ours has better walls.
Because bad news is already extremely well catered for. We think there's room for one corner of the internet where York only makes you feel better, so that's what we built. If a story doesn't leave you a little fonder of the city, we don't run it.
If you live in or around York and can write warmly about it: yes, please. Send a short pitch through the form above or to [email protected]. First-time writers very welcome; enthusiasm beats experience here.
We love writing about York independents, and nobody can pay to be featured. If we cover your café, shop or project, it's because we genuinely rate it. That's the only way the recommendation stays worth anything.
