THE IMPORTANCE OF THE GREAT OLD CITY OF YORK TO THE WORLD OF TOMORROW HAS TO BE PRESERVED AND NURTURED FOR ITS PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE FUTURE, AS THEY HAVE IN THE PAST.

THERE IS NO BETTER WAY OF DOING THIS THAN BUILDING AN INTERNATIONAL CENTRE OF QUALITY, CHARACTER, CULTURE, LEARNING, FITNESS AND HEALTH WITHIN IT.

THERE IS NO BETTER PLACE TO PUT THIS THAN THE OLD DYING SITE OF THE ROWNTREES FACTORY WHERE QUAKERS PAST CREATED SO MUCH.

LET NESTLES, WHO HAVE MORE THAN RECOUPED THEIR ORIGINAL INVESTMENT IN THE SITE AND TAKEN WORLD CLASS PRODUCTS TO OTHER PLACES WITH THEM, GIVE IT TO THE CITY AS THEIR PARTING GIFT FOR THIS NOBLE PURPOSE.

THE NESTLE-ROWNTREE YORK CENTRE OF CULTURE, LEISURE AND SPORT.

A PLACE WHERE THE PEOPLE OF YORK CAN DEVELOP THEIR CHARACTER, CULTURE, HEALTH, AMBITIONS AND FITNESS TO STAND PROUD ALONGSIDE THE BILLIONS OF PEOPLE FROM AROUND THE WORLD WHO THE CITY HOSTS AND THOSE WHO COME TO OUR UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES TO LEARN THEIR SKILLS AND VALUES FOR LIFE.

PLEASE HELP THIS TO HAPPEN WITH YOUR SUPPORT WHEREVER YOU ARE.
