THE North Dartmoor Search and Rescue Team (NDSRT) thanked the proprietors of the White Hart Inn at Bridestowe, for holding a Christmas hampers auction, from which £525 was raised for the Okehampton branch.

Twelve hampers, mistletoe, mulled wine and mystery lots were auctioned off to a very supportive gathering of customers.

Sponsors of the event, along with the White Hart Inn, were Hi-Line Services Ltd, Tedburn St Mary, Martin's Butchers, Okehampton, Bridestowe Post Office and Stores and J and R Food Services Ltd, Exeter, to whom the NDSRT is grateful.

The NDSRT is a charity and is funded entirely by donations and sponsorship. People wishing to support the team by donating money can do so by visiting http://www.ndsrt.org.uk">www.ndsrt.org.uk
