Congratulations to team member Nigel Booth, who at the beginning of August completed his twelve month long Trainee Team membership within the team, and has now become a full team Call Out list member.

Nigel was invited on to a Bolton MRT team exercise in early summer 2012, which rekindled his previous interest in mountain rescue, when before joining Greater Manchester County Fire Service (GMFRS as it is now known) he was a member of Rossendale Search and Rescue Team (Now RPMRT)

Nigel is currently a GMFRS Watch Manager at GMFRS Bolton North Fire Station, and within the Bolton MRT holds the elected post of Equipment Officer (Medical Equipment)
