Today we received a very kind and thoughtful donation of £100.00 from Mr Alan Thompson of Bolton, the mountain biker we rescued, working alongside an NWAS (Manchester) emergency ambulance crew, when he suffered an ankle injury in a fall from his mountain bike on Saturday 17th January this year, whilst mountain biking on the fringes of Smithills Moor, in the vicinity of Holdens Farm.

Alan in a letter with his very generous donation explained that he suffered a broken ankle, which resulted in an operation to insert a plate and 9x screws to hold everything in place !

All the team wishes Alan a full and speedy recovery back to full health and mountain biking on our hills once again.
