    It is with sadness that we learn of the death of actor Helen McCrory and our thoughts are with her family at this sad time. Helen was an honorary graduate at York in 2016 - hear her inspirational words from that ceremony here: youtu.be/vWQ6MAumRW4?t=…

    "My flatmates and I are very grateful for the goodie bags. The university has no obligation to give these out but the fact they have done so is so generous. Definitely lifts our spirits as lockdown can be quite tough away from our families!" - Kate, Goodricke #UoYLockdownLoot
