The weather might not be great today but we are pleased all the same to launch our new water safety campaign to help prevent accidental drownings in Greater Manchester’s waterways 🌊 These incidents do tend to happen more so when it's hot, however, can happen at any time 😢 pic.twitter.com/XobCSQtBx3
At 15:55 yesterday we were contacted by @NWAmbulance who were requesting our assistance near Rivington Pike. A three year old boy was out walking with his family just below the Pike tower when he was struck by a male riding a mountian bike. Continued... facebook.com/58756182794365…
As we enter further easing of restrictions this weekend the @NWAmbulance have enhanced their plans to ensure we can respond to the increase in demand we will face. Please be careful, and remember we are still dealing with COVID-19. #SaveLives
How many other countries have unarmed officers running towards knife wielding killers. British Police really are quite remarkable when you stop to think about that.

Fantastic Support From Ye Jolly Crofters, Horwich, with their Christmas Raffle
Today our Team Secretary, Gillian Gregory, called into Ye Jolly Crofters pub on Chorley Old Road, Horwich, to be presented with the proceeds of a Christmas raffle organised by our great friends and team supporters, licencees Sharon and Alan Jones. They had put together a beautifully decorated drinks hamper of wines and beers and sold raffle tickets, in support of Bolton Mountain Rescue team, to their generous customers.
The raffle raised a wonderful £95.33 – and not only that, but the winner of the hamper promptly and kindly also donated it to Bolton Mountain Rescue Team members. So many thanks to Sharon and Alan, their supportive customers, and the generous raffle winner for his/her selfless gesture. This latest fundraising activity follows an Easter raffle held in April 2015 which raised over £200 for Bolton Mountain Rescue Team, as well as the provision of a wonderful hot supper for team members to enjoy on their Christmas social visit to Ye Jolly Crofters in December, and a promise from Sharon and Alan to continue to support us – what great friends of the Team!
