Young people in the Ryedale area are being offered advice and help from a minibus painted in pink - their own choice of colour.

The vehicle is being used as a mobile resource centre by the Ryedale Detached Youth Project and was sponsored by Ashley Burgess of Burgess Supafeeds.

It visits outlying villages and youngsters can visit for a hot drink and a chat with youth workers about a wide range of topics.

Project manager Sue Dent said: "I think it's fantastic. We did a survey of 150 young people and asked them what colour they'd like and they said pink."
