A 5k charity run for mental health is set to take place in Malton this summer.
Move For Mental Health will take place in Malton on Sunday, August 23 at 9.30am, starting and finishing at Talbot Yard.
The event, organised by 19-year-old Eve Hargreaves, is raising funds for Mind.
Miss Hargreaves said: "After experiencing it myself, and seeing first-hand in Liverpool how important exercise and connection are for many people's mental health to combat low mood and loneliness.
"Many of the run clubs in the city aim to combine exercise and socialising to support people's mental wellbeing, and I really want to bring this idea back to my hometown.
"Every ability is more than welcome, in hopes to help the local community get together and start more conversations about mental health."
She is suggesting a voluntary donation of £5 per runner, either on the day or via her JustGiving page.
