A VERY successful auction, in aid of Friends of St Andrew’s Church (FoStA), was held on the afternoon of August 25 at St Andrew’s Church in Stratton.

The auctioneer was the popular and entertaining Mr Reg Hambley, from Kilkhampton, assisted by his daughter and son-in-law.

A little over £840 was realised and the organisers expressed their thanks to all those who generously brought items to be auctioned, the many who supported the event on the day and those who gave donations.
