CHARITY AUCTION

Last week we were kindly donated a prime hogg by J Harrison. It was bought by Meadow Meats who kindly took the lamb, dressed it and brought it back to todays sale to be sold in two halves for further donations. Each half of lamb was sold 3 times and raised a total of £431. Meadow Meats also brought a crop of beef which raised a further £145. Along with other donations made in the office, this takes the total money raised to a massive £3799. All donations will be forwarded to the DEC to help Ukranian families.
