A fundraising tractor run is due to be held in memory of a teenager who died last year.

Harry Moss, 14, died following an incident involving farm machinery at a farm in Malvern, Worcestershire, last April.

Andy Tipping, chair of the local Vintage Tractor and Engine Club, said he was expecting more than 60 tractors and 20 Land Rovers to take part.

"Harry was a young 14-year-old, who was actually saving to buy a vintage tractor. He just loved farming, fishing and rugby," Tipping said.

"We do a lot of road runs - dementia, cancer, meningitis - and Harry would have been on all those believe me. He was that sort of lad."

The tractor run on Saturday will start at Brickbarns Farm in Malvern, setting off at 10:00 BST, and make its way to the church in Madresfield.

"All our younger members want to give Harry the sound he would have loved, and that is the airhorns on the tractor," Tipping said.

The convoy will then head to Madresfield Club.

Harry was know for being a big tractor enthusiast and a similar tractor convoy took place for his funeral in June 2025.

"I got to Poolbrook, to the Post Office, and started blubbering up because I have never seen so many people standing on the side of the road for that young lad, which says a lot," Tipping added.

"We're hoping that will happen again this Saturday.

"Every tractor will have a picture of Harry on the front or somewhere on the front.

"So if you could give the drivers the wave I am sure they will wave back at you and give you the horns."

The tractor run will raise money for the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity.

West Mercia Police said a 19-year-old man arrested in connection with Harry's death had been released under investigation.
