The Yorkshire Society is a non-political organisation founded in December 1980 by Mr Barry Whittaker and Councillor for the West Riding David Daniel. It extended the philosophies of an earlier Yorkshire Society which, in 1818, wished to encourage people born, working or living in the County of Yorkshire to join and then help improve several aspects of the area, including the social welfare of its people as well as Yorkshire's physical environment.
