Sunday (August 30) saw the return of the district’s beloved annual charity fundraiser, PramFest.
The popular community event combined a colourful charity pram race with a community festival, with participants, visitors and supporters travelling from across the region to take part.
Dozens of teams took on a two-mile route through the village, transforming prams into imaginative themed creations and dressing up to raise money for local hospice care.
This year, there were some greatly designed prams and costumes, with themes including The Inbetweeners and Toy Story.
The community festival was held at Ackworth Cricket Club and featured live music, fairground rides, local traders, a raffle, auction and the famous welly wanging competition.
All funds raised from PramFest will go to the The Prince of Wales Hospice and the vital work they do.
