What the charity does
Devon Cave Rescue Organisation (DevCRO) is a volunteer run search and rescue charity, comprised of local cavers who assist others who may be lost or injured in the caves or mines of Devon. The rescue team has approximately 40 members, based throughout Devon, Somerset and Cornwall. We spend donated money on supporting this cause, for example on rescue equipment and rescuer training.
