Today we received two donations totalling £60.00 in the memory of Mr Harold Marland, who recently died one day after his 95th birthday.

A letter with the donations explained that the donations were “instead of flowers and to the memory of our father Harold Marland, as it was his wish that donations be divided between the North West Air Ambulance and the Bolton Mountain Rescue Team.”

We are all very grateful for such a kind thought at a difficult time, and the teams condolences are expressed to the family of the late Mr Harold Marland.
