Professor Dave Petley, previous Chair of Yorkshire Universities (YU), introduces the report and details YU’s achievements over last twelve months:
It is my pleasure to introduce the 2024/25 Annual Report as Chair of Yorkshire Universities
(YU) during the period in question. This year, YU has continued to strengthen its influence
and impact within the national and regional higher education (HE) systems, underpinned by
a deepening of collaboration between our members, and with national and local
governments, devolved institutions, industry, and communities. Building on a recognised
record of achievement, we are one of the leading players in the emergent network of
regional HE coalitions in the UK, helping to increase the visibility and the value attached to
regional HE systems.
