Dorset & West Pastfinders

It all started with a charity rally in May 2015, and Dorset & West Pastfinders has carried that spirit on ever since. The club, based around Blandford Forum, runs regular digs with a twist: the money raised goes to charities picked by the landowners whose fields are being searched.

It's a decent arrangement all round — the landowner's chosen cause benefits, and members get regular ground to detect on. Use the contact links to ask about joining and upcoming digs.

Thinking of joining? Get in touch with the club directly using the links here — and if you're still choosing your first metal detector, sort that before your first dig.
