I would recommend finding a congenial neighborhood pub. It is a wonderful place to make friends and find out about local news. Join a class (I take dance with new friends), get involved in nature activities like hiking clubs, photography clubs or birding. Don't be afraid to talk to people and don't be nervous about not understanding every word the first time! Yorkshire accents are quite hard to decipher until one has lived with it for a while. Enjoy the differences instead of dreading them. Relax and people will enjoy your company and ask questions about where you are from.

Very little diversity in this small town. We have a small Asian population. There are always those who are not accepting of minorities, I understand that. Religion is not discussed often. It is considered a private matter.
There is no industry in Driffield. Career opportunities are few and are usually in the service area. I hear of job openings because I have made friends and the job grapevine is very strong!
Life in Driffield revolves around family and friends. Sports teams are an important social event.

I would advise them to research East Yorkshire and it's history and geography. I would ask them to be open to new ways of living (small rooms, electrical and plumbing not familiar, etc.). I would advise them to consider commuting by train or bus for work in one of the larger cities. I would encourage any newcomer to be friendly and open with their new neighbors.
