A regional daily has paid tribute to its patch’s young people in a special supplement.

The Yorkshire Post has published the Yorkshire’s Future supplement, which pays tribute to the achievements of the county’s children.

The pullout’s publication in today’s edition of the Leeds-based daily coincides with Yorkshire Day.

In an accompanying editorial, Post editor James Mitchinson said he wanted to honour “Yorkshire’s amazing young people in the foothills of their lives”.

He wrote: “I want those children and fledgling adults to know that we see them, we appreciate them and that we trust them with tomorrow.

“Whether it is their academic achievements or their vocational skills; their musicality or sporting prowess; their compassion and friendship or their courage and strength.

“This supplement seeks to capture who the young people of Yorkshire really are and fizz with the energy they bring into our lives.

“Because I know that Yorkshire’s future is safe in their hands. We hope that once you’ve read this special feature, you’ll know that, too.”
