The Yorkshire Times launched on 1st September 2011

YT is something completely new: A magazine style website with contributions from hundreds of citizen-journalists - that's you and me brother!

If you are a beekeeper, an antiques restorer or a space-scientist then we'd love to hear from you.

YT is filled with articles from people who know how to do things; practical experience is more highly regarded than communication skills.

We want to feature people who do things, not people who say things - there's enough of that out there already!

So, if you have something to offer, please send a brief email to newsdesk@yorkshiretimes.co.uk and we'll be in touch.

We hope you enjoy our experiment in citizen journalism.

All at the YT.
