Donations

Back in August 2005 the team was called to assist a climber who had injured himself at Ousel Nest Quarry near Jumbles Reservoir. Iain Bissett went on to make a full recovery, and since then, Iains father, David Bissett, has supported the team over the years.

David recently gave a talk for the Rotary Club of Bolton and kindly chose Bolton Mountain Rescue as the benefactor of the £50 fee.

We would like to thank both David Bissett and the Rotary Club of Bolton for this kind donation.

We are pleased to announce a donation arising from a tea and home-made cake stall organised by our friends from Burnden Road Runners.

The money was collected during the runners annual race, the “Trotter 5” on 4th March. A sum of £322.07 was raised and donated to the team.

We would like to thank Burnden Road Runners for this kind donation, and will no-doubt bump into some of them during the fell-race standby rescue covers the team support.

We are pleased to announce a kind donation of £450 from North Turton Parish Council via Glenys Syddall, Clerk to the Council.

We would like to thank Turton Parish Council for their continued support for the team.

Ms Cheryl Speight of Chorley has made a kind donation to us of £10.63 (+ £2.66 Gift Aid) via our online giving portal.  This support of our work is much appreciated.

We have been notified of a kind donation of £21.25 (+ £5.31 Gift Aid) made via our online giving portal, Charity Checkout, from Mrs Melissa Smith of Bury.

We rely heavily on support from the general public to finance our voluntary search and rescue service, so this donation is much appreciated.
