Bell Tent and Yurt Staff
North Sky Yurts is a Yurt and Bell Tent Hire business based in North Leeds providing magical spaces for events that don’t cost the Earth.

"I worked two summers with NSY and loved every day, Becca and Charlotte always bring the good vibes no matter the weather!
Working with NSY gave me the opportunity to enjoy flexible working outdoors in the summer, helped me build my fitness, and enabled me to visit so many scenic places and venues I had never been to.
My favourite part of the job was always the picnic lunches in the sunshine at all of the lovely venues we visited, chatting and getting to know everyone on the team! ”
