Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

7th July 2003

9 team members ran a presentation, to demonstrate the teams’ capabilities to the extremely enthusiastic firefighters at Green watch at the GMCFS Bolton North fire station. The firefighters were most interested (and apparently, impressed!) with our rope rescue hardware, as well as other medical and extrication equipment. Much banter took place and we arranged an exercise with the watch for the future.
Of course, one or two of our members had an ulterior motive for this visit, and took the opportunity to go all gooey-eyed whilst having a tinker with the fire services’ Pinzgauer (6wd, all terrain vehicle), which is stationed at Bolton North.
