A TOYOTA dealership has donated almost £2,000 to help set up a community garden in a Darlington park.

RMB Toyota, in McMullen Road, has donated £1,800 to the Friends of North Lodge Park.

The group plans to use the donation to create a community garden where local residents can grow fruits and vegetables.
