About
Yorventure is an independent not-for-profit Environmental Body that distributes grants through the Landfill Communities Fund with landfill tax credits generated by Yorwaste.
Yorwaste operates five landfill sites throughout North Yorkshire. The tax money that Yorwaste reclaim is donated to Yorventure to distribute amongst community and environmental projects in the City of York and North Yorkshire that are within 10 miles of any of the Yorwaste sites at Scorton near Richmond, Skibeden near Skipton, Harewood Whin near York, Caulklands near Pickering and Seamer Carr near Scarborough.
Since 2005 Yorventure has also been able to support projects in West Yorkshire that are within 10 miles of the Yorwaste landfill site at Skibeden near Skipton.
Since Yorventure was first established in 1997 it has invested almost £7 million in more than 250 projects in the City of York, North Yorkshire and Northern Bradford.
This site was designed, and is hosted by Red Squirrel Media.
