About

The Richmond Yorkshire Community Interest Company was established in December 2023. It’s based in Richmond and is run by Richmond residents. As a Company, which is Limited by Guarantee, it reinvests any profit that it makes, back into the community-based projects that it is delivering.

These projects support economic growth and resilience, promote community cohesion, and provide positive experiences for our community and visitors.
