Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

20th April 2013

We are extremely proud to announce that team Call Out list member Paul Copley who joined the team in November 2010, and is a BT employee, has been informed that after a rigorous selection process, he has been invited by his employer as one of only twelve national finalists, to attend the BT Chairman’s Awards 2013, to be held in London.

Paul has been selected as a finalist for his voluntary work with the Bolton Mountain Rescue Team, and will be journeying to the Awards Ceremony to be held on 11th June 2013, in the prestigious setting of the BT Tower, London.

At the Awards Ceremony, short films profiling each of the finalists will be shown in the auditorium, and filming of Paul with some of his team colleagues is due to take place shortly.

Paul in his time with the team, has applied for and successfully gained a BT People Award for his work in the team, in November 2012, and a BT Community Champions Award in March 2012, and March 2011. These three Awards gained by Paul Copley have resulted in BT very kindly awarding the team a total of £1,460.00 in donations related to the awards.

Run by BT, the BT People Awards Scheme and its forerunner, the BT Community Champions Awards Scheme rewards BT employees with funding where they volunteer their time for local community groups, charities and organisations. (Please also see website ‘News’ reports dated Thursday 22nd November 2012, Tuesday 20th March 2012 and Wednesday 16th March 2011)

The whole team membership wishes Paul every success in the final of the BT Chairman’s Awards 2013 Ceremony.
