AN auction of men has helped to raise money for an injured teenager.
Friends of Ben Woods, from Hurworth, near Darlington, agreed to participate in the event at the Turks Head pub in Bondgate, Darlington, on Sunday.
Ben, 17, lost his right arm and left leg after being struck by a train on the East Coast main line in July. His family and friends are raising funds to buy prosthetic limbs.
The Queen Elizabeth Sixth Form College pupil has been fitted with standard NHS limbs but his friends hope to raise enough money to buy him more advanced versions.
