Our thoughts and condolences are with the Royal Family following the sad news of the death of His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Many of our members were inspired to enjoy the outdoors through the DofE Award. The picture shows members meeting the Duke in 1979. pic.twitter.com/SSTC30CcPB
At 4.56pm yesterday we were requested by NWAS to assist with a 22yo male who had fallen at Tiger’s Clough. The team treated him with pain relief & placed a vacuum splint around the injured ankle, then stretchered him to the waiting ambulance.We wish him a speedy recovery. pic.twitter.com/ZEbrt4vaLT
1/2 From all of us at BMRT we would just like to thank every one of you that donated to us this weekend. It was a hard decision for us not to do our usual Easter meet and great around Rivington but for the safety of our team members, we decided against it. pic.twitter.com/xkNOo8equX
It's been a busy start to 2021 for the team. Three months in & we are already on our way to more callouts than we had last year. If you can support us in our work, please feel free to donate via boltonmrt.enthuse.com/#!/ #BoltonMRT #Volunteers #Donate #Rescues #BeenBusy pic.twitter.com/KhDxLT92N8
1/ Today is usually a busy and important day for the team. With so many people visiting the Rivington area in particular, we would usually have our displays set up around the area to help educate people about outdoor safety. pic.twitter.com/0iKNZaqWU1

❓ Did you know that moorland and wildfires can be started in a number of ways? Sadly, many are started deliberately, however, some can break out by people being careless with barbecues, campfires or not disposing of cigarettes properly 🔥 pic.twitter.com/WDHdEHFcXA

Thanks received regarding Incident 103, Sunday 12th October 2008
Today we received two thankyou emails, the contents of which are self explanatory from the casualty and one of her companions, involved in Incident 103, Sunday 12th October 2008.
The following represent extracts from both emails.
“Hello I was one of the mountain bikers on Rivington this weekend, just to say thanks for all your help. Sarah has a broken collar bone and a few grazes but was back home Sunday night and will be out of action for a while. The hospital suspected a fractured sternum for a while but the xray showed that was all clear. The ride in the helicopter helped her cope with the pain!!!”
“On a more serious note, many many thanks for your prompt response and care…..”
“Many Thanks, Amanda Reddy.”
“Hi ! I am Sarah Nock, the mountain biker who was rescued from Rivington Pike on Sunday 12th October. I would like to say thank you very much to all the rescuers who were involved in getting me off the hill. I do have a fractured collarbone and am in a lot of pain but I am so grateful for all the work from the various teams on Sunday.”
“Also, once I am well and truly back on my feet I will carry out some fundraising for the various groups who rescued me.”
“Many thanks once again, Sarah Nock.”
The whole team wishes Sarah a very speedy recovery back to full health, and of course back to mountain biking on the local hills.
