On August 31, Dorset Mind will host the Dorset Plane Pull at Bournemouth Airport. The charity event aims to raise funds for local mental health support by having teams of up to 20 people compete to pull a Boeing 737 aircraft over 50 meters in the fastest time.

The three participating teams include Durable UK and Manutan, ActionCOACH, and CrossFit Durnovaria. Together, they are aiming to raise £3,000 to support Dorset Mind's mental health services.

Dorset Mind's community and events fundraising manager, Emma Murgatroyd, expressed her excitement for the event, stating, 'We're thrilled to have three fantastic teams taking on this year's Plane Pull.'

The funds raised will be used to support peer support group sessions, providing people with safe spaces to connect, gain confidence, and improve their wellbeing.
