Wharfedale Homes are sponsoring the Burton Leonard 10k run and also putting together a team of runners to raise extra money. The 10k run is a not-for-profit project, raising important funds for village sports, the village annual Feast, the primary school and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. The event has been an ongoing success for over 30 years and attracts competitors and their families from across the region. It is a well-respected, competitive running event due to the quality of the village setting and the challenge of the undulating rural courses.
