The Lord Mayor of York, Cllr Janet Looker, has teamed up with the Two Ridings Community Foundation THE Lord Mayor of York has teamed up with a local foundation to set up a new fund to benefit the local community. The Lord Mayor of York’s Fund, set up by Councillor Janet Looker and the Two Ridings Community Foundation, will award grants of up to £5,000. Both organisations and individuals can benefit from the grants, but they must fall within the two categories; children and young people and community arts. Lord Mayor of York said: “I look forward to working with Two Ridings Community Foundation to ensure that awards will be made where the need is greatest.”
