North Yorkshire is targeting speeding drivers this summer.

The North Yorkshire 95 Alive summer drink drive road safety campaign is taking action to reduce the number of people killed and seriously injured on the region’s roads and will urge motorists to stay within the speed limit and to keep their concentration especially in built up areas.

Susan Gallagher, road safety officer for North Yorkshire County Council said: “Operation Siren shows that drivers are still speeding. It is vital drivers consider the safety of children and elderly people who live in our area. Speeding and drink driving are proven to be major factors in road related deaths and injuries.”

I recently contracted Winston Solicitors to support me in obtaining a grant of probate following the death of a parent. I worked closely with Emily and found her to be supportive, have great communication and be able to navigate the IHT and probate processes very efficiently.

Absolutely exceptional service from start to finish. I will definitely be recommending you to others. Michelle was fantastic and eased me through the whole process. I had so many questions as a first time buyer, Michelle answered them all and responded quickly every time. Very happy - August 2025

When Mum needed the system most that she had been paying into all her life she was failed by countless people and departments, assessments not completed, lost files, appointments not kept, delay after delay and on. I had a gut feeling that procedures weren't being followed and began my quest for the truth in her memory. I found James at 'Winston Solicitors' who helped us take on the system and prove that Mum was indeed entitled to CHC Funding. Throughout the case he was relentless in his pursuit to seek out the truth and hold those accountable who failed Mum. He gave us regular updates and discussed every step with us along the way, I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone who has found themselves in this dreadful position in traumatic times with their loved ones. - August 2025
