A TEENAGER and his friends ran 20 miles over Penyghent and Ingleborough to raise money for a men's mental health charity.

Will Potter, 17, his brother, and a group of friends ran the distance over two of the Wharfedale Three Peaks for Andy's Man Club.

So far, the group has raised more than £750.

Will said: "When it comes to mental health, men and boys tend to bottle up their emotions and refuse to seek help.

"It is so important that everyone has the confidence to speak out.

"I want to raise awareness for boys and men to gain the confidence to speak out and let others know what they’re going through."

Emma and Rob Potter, parents of William and Alfie, said: "We are so proud of our boys and their amazing friends for achieving this challenge and raising awareness.

"Will has struggled with his own mental health and has chosen to positively tackle this head on by helping others at the same time.

"All the boys’ parents are so proud of this great group of boys."
