Yorkshire and Humber Regional Environment Forum
Yorkshire & Humber Regional Environment Forum (YHREF) was formed in 2001 to coordinate and represent the views of a wide range of organisations for whom a key interest is in the enhancement of environmental conditions in the Yorkshire and Humber Region and in the social and economic value of such changes. Our purpose is to develop a shared environmental agenda for the Region and a coordinated voice to promote and lobby on environmental issues at regional level. We will achieve this by developing closer working relations between the environmental organisations and a signifcant repository for environmental expertise within the Region.
