Welcome to North Yorkshire and York Forum

North Yorkshire Forum for Voluntary Organisations (NYFVO) formed in 1986, has recently become a company limited by guarantee and is now known as North Yorkshire and York Forum (NYYF). The Forum is the sub-regional infrastructure organisation for York and North Yorkshire and exists to promote, develop and support new and existing forms of voluntary and community action; and to ensure that their views and interests are well represented.


The Forum provides a range of services and support to voluntary organisations, community groups and charities in York and North Yorkshire - for further information about what we do please follow the links to the left.

We know networking with other organisations is important to you – but the challenges of geography and funding cuts makes it harder than ever for people to get to meetings and events. Social media provides a different way of sharing news and ideas, and having genuine and open dialogue.

We aim to use this increasingly in future, to broaden our communications and find new ways of involving people in our work.
