‘Yorkshire santa’ Reese Fletcher and his ‘elves’ from Kippax, West Yorkshire have made nearly £40,000 from selling Christmas trees out of pallet boxes over the past few years. This year they are adding more items to their sleigh such as reindeers and wooden gifts to flog to customers near and far.

We went to try out a Talk Tyke course to learn to speak 'proper Yor...

Nestled in a small pocket of West Yorkshire is the small market town of Cleckheaton. It was here inside the stunning library where I am discovering the art of how to actually speak Yorkshire as part of a Talk Tyke course.

It’s a short walk away from Bradford Live, a new music venue, which was supposed to welcome 300,000 visitors to the city each year but it currently faces an uncertain future.
