Today our Team Leader Garry Rhodes MBE and Team Training Officer Elaine Gilliland received the following thanks from the Team Training Officer Graham Munns, of our colleagues at NEWSART regards their involvement in this years Joint Foundation Course in Mountain Rescue. (See previous report, dated Sunday 23rd October 2011)

“On behalf of the team members who had attended, I would just like to thank and congratulate you for all your efforts in welcoming us, your hospitality and the delivering of the course over the weekend. Talking to the team members on our journey home there was nothing but praise and satisfaction from them and how they now have a warm glowing feeling on what is expected of them when they are placed onto the callout list and attending their first job. It was also great to meet and work with you all at Bolton MRT and I am already looking forward to next year’s course.

See you soon, Kind Regards, Graham Munns, Training Officer for NEWSAR.”
