Our Story
Over the years our team has grown to include 23 paid staff and anywhere between 40 -60 volunteers.
Our team work over all the services we provide and receive specialist training for their particular department, be it the Post Office, Little White Bus, Dale Head Garage or the Community Library.
We are also proud to have around
40 - 60 volunteers at any one time giving up their valuable time to help us and their local communities, both as bus drivers and as part of the Good Life Community Support team.

Our Story
Our Vision, Mission and Values
Our Story
UDCP Ltd was established in October 1997 by the Chairs of six local
Parish Councils. Concerned that services were slowly disappearing from our communities, a partnership between UDCP Ltd, North Yorkshire Police Authority and what was then called Richmondshire District Council was formed.
In 2005 the partnership entered into a new working relationship with North Yorkshire County Council in what is now the Community Office and Library in Hawes.
Over the years we have added The Little White Bus, Hawes Post Office, the management of Raynes Court Business Units, Dale Head Garage and our
Good Life Community Support project.
