The Penticton Mental Wellness Centre is hosting their 8th Annual Walk to Defeat Depression on May 25.

The walk takes place at 1 pm. at Rotary Park and the organizers say it will be the biggest event yet.

The proceeds from the event will go towards supporting services in the community for those living with or affected by mental health. The walk is part of the Defeat Depression campaign, a national fundraiser to support local mental health initiatives.
