The Beadlam Charity Tractor run has proven to be a successful fundraising event once again, with thousands of pounds raised.

Malcolm Simpson, the event's organiser, recently presented a cheque to Kevin Hutchinson, community fundraiser for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

This year marked the 21st tractor run, which managed to raise an impressive total of £7,792.39.

The event was first established in 2002 by Malcolm's father, Bernard Simpson, and has grown in popularity over the years.

To date, the event has raised more than £137,000.

Participants include farmers and vintage machinery enthusiasts who proudly display their colourful vintage and modern tractors along the scenic country roads of Ryedale, passing through various villages and market towns such as Pickering and Kirkbymoorside.
