It was our pleasure to help out even if only in a small way.
This week is Volunteers’ Week.
Everyone on Bolton Mountain Rescue Team, like all Mountain Rescue Teams in England & Wales, is a volunteer. This means that we can only keep going through public donations and good-will gestures.
Running and maintaining our vehicles is one of our major costs. A fantastic gesture of good-will came from Whitecroft Garage in Bolton earlier this year. In January, they very kindly MOT’d one of our Land Rovers - Bolton Mobile 2 (BM2) - for free. During the MOT, it was found that the vehicle required some essential remedial work. Following that work, Whitecroft Garage again MOT’d BM2 totally free of charge.
Thank you to all at Whitecroft Garage for helping keep us on the road!
