A FOUR-day walk staged to spotlight mental health and the support available across the district stopped-off in Keighley.

The walkers called at Project 6 and Roshni Ghar in the town during the marathon stint, organised by Mind in Bradford to coincide with national Mental Health Awareness Week.

The Wellbeing Walk began in Bradford and finished at Skipton.

Members of the public were invited to join in sections of the route.

Alan Wilson, mental health practitioner at Mind in Bradford, said challenging the stigma around mental health was key and the walk helped to dispel myths.

“A lot of people say stigma is the worst part of having a mental health label or diagnosis,” he added.

“If we are going to challenge and change things we will have to do it by direct action like this.

“One stigma surrounding mental health is that we are lazy and we wanted to show that’s not the case.”
