Dartmoor - Beyond Sensible?, 1 August 2023
We need to raise £65,000 in 2022 for both a much needed additional building for the Rescue Centre which is used by Dartmoor Search & Rescue Team (Tavistock), and vital redevelopments to be made to the existing building

Story

A total of £65,000 is needed to rebuild the rescue centre at Tavistock. A part new build and rebuild of the centre to provide secure parking for the new and existing vehicles, bring the current building and facilities up to date and secure independent/owned access to the rescue centre.   

This is a crucial development project creating a centre and associated facilities capable of underpinning the operations team commitment to serve the community and those who venture onto Dartmoor.

This challenge has just got a whole lot bigger! Along with a number of smaller fund raisers I will attempt to hike all the named hills and tors on the OS OL28 map. Over 350 miles worth of hiking, it's going to be epic!

Read my story of the last challenge and how I tackled 172 tors across 250 miles of the Dartmoor boundary, unsupported carrying everything I needed over 15 days. The full gritty challenge! Just donate a minimum of £10 and send your receipt via email to me at chrisbunney01@gmail.com. I'll send a link to download the book.
