Gin night proves a tonic for CareMoor charity

TWO special fund-raising Exmoor Gin nights were held at the Swan in Bampton as part of the Exmoor National Park’s new CareMoor Dining Club.

Exmoor-based Wicked Wolf Gin owners Pat and Julie Heap worked with Paul and Donna Berry, of The Swan, to deliver five gin-based drinks perfectly matching each of the five courses.

A total of £330 was raised for CareMoor for Exmoor, the National Park’s donation scheme supporting nature, heritage and access projects across the moor. 

CareMoor Dining Club events are hosted by different venues around Greater Exmoor celebrating local food and drink while raising funds.

Katrina Munro, of Exmoor National Park Authority, said: “These events are the perfect way to celebrate and support our local Exmoor producers and we’re very grateful to the Swan for kicking off this year’s events.”
