Young people who count
The outgoing Archbishop of York David Hope has presented two more local young people with their awards for outstanding service in the community.
Alex Bishop and Hannah Fieldhouse were recommended for an award by local people. A small panel administered by the Millennium Trust decided that Alex and Hannah deserved recognition for their voluntary work with other young people.

At a ceremony at the Palace attended by Trustees, and family members, the awards - a Certificate and a gift to the value of £100 - were handed over by the Archbishop. Dr Hope spoke about the pleasure he took in making the awards, and he was thanked by Trust Chair John Bettridge for the the support he had given to the Trust since its existence.

At a farewell private dinner given in honour of the Archbishop, he was presented with a photograph, a book and a token towards his new garden at Ilkley when he takes up his new parish post in February.
The names of the two Youth Award winners will shortly appear on a speacial board in the Village Hall in Main Street.
