Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

13th January 2010

With the huge increase in the usage of our four Land Rover Mountain Rescue Ambulance vehicles over the last few weeks thankfully they have held up well. Our BM1,2 and 3 vehicles were purchased new in August 1999, our BM4 vehicle was purchased new in August 2003.

However our BM1 developed a problem with its diff lock and required attention.

Frank Hulton of Frank Hulton Motor engineers, Farnworth, who looks after all the servicing and repairs on all our vehicles and trailers, immediately agreed, in view of the workload of the team, to deal with the problem straightaway, and thankfully sorted everything out this morning very quickly for us. Including even sorting out a problem with BM1 we didn’t know we had !

This means all four of our team vehicles are back in service, once again thanks to Frank Hulton of Frank Hulton Motor Engineers, Farnworth.
