We are gathering stories of York’s citizens who are making a positive impact on their communities.

We will compile these stories into a beautiful book, which will offer guidance for those wanting to follow in their footsteps.

• Fill in the form below to nominate a story for consideration (you can nominate yourself, an individual, or a group).

• We will arrange to spend half a day with the person or group, in which time we will take photographs and gather information about the project.

• The photographs and accompanying story will be compiled and edited, and sent to the individual or organisation to review before being publishing.

Anything you feel comfortable in, but try to avoid busy patterns, bright white clothing and accessories that are noisy (as we’ll stick a mic on you to capture our conversation).
