I am writing to report the sad passing of Trevor Hart. He might not be a common name to many York people, but Trevor was one time Chairman of York Natural Environment Trust, and as Chairman was influential in various environmental campaigns, especially the creation of St Nicholas Fields Nature Reserve in the early 1990s.

Trevor influenced people by his charm and happy demeanour and ability to get things done.

He will be sadly missed by his sons and partner Pat.
