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

Wednesday night welcome back to former team member.
This evening former team call out list member Gillian Leigh visited the team at the invitation of our Team Leader to see how things have changed since she left the team in 1994.
Our Team Leader met Gill at our Spring Fayre and she had quickly taken up the invitation to come along, joining fully in with our Wednesday evening session which this week was concentrating on ’back to basics skills.’
Gillian joined the team in 1985 leaving in 1994 to take up a career in teaching going on to bring up her young family with her husband Ian, also a ex team member and former Deputy Team Leader.
In her time in the team Gillian became an experienced team member, and party leader, serving on the Team Council as the teams Honorary Secretary.
During this evenings session two Support Group members, Johanne Lamb and Hazel Kennedy volunteered to be ’exercise casualties’ for the rest of the team to practise their splinting skills on.
