For residents who intend to use taxis this holiday season, East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s licensing team advises them to plan ahead and only use legally licensed taxis.
The council warns that bogus taxi drivers should be avoided. Social media should not be used to request ‘lifts’ unless a licensed driver is offering them. There are often no licensed drivers or vehicles involved in ‘lifts’, and they have not been vetted or checked.
It is being planned for the council’s local growth team to do two days of activities in the centre of Beverley towards the end of the month.
There will be no pre-registration required for the events, and there will be no charge to attend. Over the course of two days, a variety of family entertainment will be provided by outside vendors as well as council-sponsored teams and community organisations.
The nights are drawing in, there is a definite chill in the air, conkers are falling – it’s that time of year again and Halloween is fast approaching. To celebrate this highlight in the calendar of countless children, something spooky is coming to Beverley on Saturday 26th October.
