Today, after team members had returned from the major incident standby in West Yorkshire and were about to return home from our Ladybridge Hall base, a knock on the door downstairs was heard, with a member of the public asking “any chance of a tow?”

Again another vehicle (this time a van) was stuck on ice on the the steep road immediately adjacent to our base, and the team members present at base assisted the driver by towing his vehicle back to the top of the lane by using a team Landrover.

As a gesture of thanks the man promptly donated £10 to the team’s funds… so thanks very much!
