Ivybridge Young Farmers Club members bagged and delivered 346 bags of dung for Dung Run this year.

From Plymouth to Newton Ferrers and Ivybridge to Rattery.

A spokesperson said: "We would like to thank our great members for getting stuck in (literally) and helping this fundraiser be a great success. "A big thank you to Luke for hosting us for bagging, our drivers Matt, Jazz, Matt and Molly as well as Zoe and Chloe for the bags.

All of the fundraising activities go towards the total money split between three very worthy charities Devon Air Ambulance, Farm Safety Foundation, Yellow Wellies and Ivybridge Young Farmers.

This fundraiser raised just under £1,000.

The spokesperson continued: "Every year Ivybridge Young Farmers Club chooses charities to support and raise money for and through the year we hold a variety of events."
