The Company of Fellmongers of Richmond Yorkshire

Charitable Activities

At the time of its reformation the Company established a charity with clear objectives. It is worth setting them out.

They are:

The advancement in life of young people in schools and apprenticeships to enhance their education and competence in their trades or careers.

The relief of elderly people who are in need by reason of their age.

The relief of  financial hardship of those who are unable to work due to ill health or disability to help them return to work.

The conservation and protection of woodlands and other areas of physical and natural environment.

The promotion of the efficiency of the Armed Forces of the Crown by providing awards for the soldiers of the Royal Yorkshire Regt and their associated Cadet Forces, and also the personnel and Cadets associated with RAF Leeming.
 
The charity forms an important part of the Company’s ethos and is administered by an active committee who support many deserving groups and individuals.
