Harrogate Grammar School is inviting people to join a walk next week in memory of a student who died of suicide.

Dom Sowa died in 2017 aged 17.

The school is taking part in a month of walks in the UK called Hopewalk, which raises money in support of Papyrus — a charity dedicated to the prevention of young suicide.

Harrogate Grammar, which has been supporting Hopewalk for the last four years, is holding a four-mile walk around Fewston reservoir on October 17 at 10am.
