The Yorkshire Vet and Ukrainian Independence Day: Highlights from The Yorkshire Post features team this week

In case you missed them, here’s a look at some of the long-reads produced by The Yorkshire Post features team this week.

At the start of the week, we spoke to a Yorkshire wedding photographer who has set up a scheme to get more women confident behind the camera.

The Yorkshire Vet star Peter Wright told us about what we can expect from series 17 of the Channel 5 show and how the industry has changed for young vets over the years.

We looked into a film project that is telling environmental stories from across Yorkshire and wants people to get involved.

And we heard from Paul Worsley who spent his career as a barrister and judge and has now edited a book about a gruesome case from the 1920s.

For Ukrainian Independence Day, we spoke to a woman who fled her homeland to settle in Bradford using the Homes for Ukraine scheme.
