What the charity does
In the last year we have secured a 30 year lease for Fishergate Postern Tower from the City of York Council. We are now in the process of applying for funding and obtaining statutory consents to carry out repairs to the tower and create more permanent displays for visitor. We continue to open the tower and other areas of York's city walls to the public to promote their use and conservation.

Why there's no Clarity Score yet
The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Friends of York Walls is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
