YANT Talks

Talks Organiser:    talks@yant.org.uk

Quaker Meeting House, Friargate, York

  If you would like to be involved with YANT and could help to organise the future Talks and AGMs ,  

please contact Catherine Brophy at chair@yant.org.uk for details of what it entails.

Talks last for about 45 minutes, with time for questions afterwards.
There will be a charge of £5 to cover the cost of the room hire and we do make a very modest donation to the speaker's chosen charity
(i.e. not a speaker's fee).
Non-members of YANT are welcome to attend so please bring relatives, friends and neighbours.
Tea and Coffee is usually available to buy in the foyer.

Zoom lectures now on the YANT website


Kitty Ross: “A 20th Century Childhood – through the Leeds Museum Collections.”

Andrew Thornton, CWGC Volunteer Speaker: “The Commonwealth War Graves Commission: Who we are”


The talks we had on Zoom in February 2022 and January 2023 were recorded and are now available for you to watch on the Talks - 2022 page and the Talks - 2023 page.

David Banks “Saving our Heritage from Climate Change”.

Marriott Room, York Central Library, Museum Street, YO1 7DS


The Skell Valley Project bears witness to the benefits of working with nature, controlling extreme river floods and empowering the local community, to make the valley landscape resilient to future climate change. This vital project showcases the National Trust carefully preserving and safeguarding the longevity of a significant UNESCO World Heritage Site. To help cover venue costs we ask for a contribution of £5 at each talk.
