Today our Team Leader Garry Rhodes MBE received in the post two very kind donations amounting to £150.00 in memory of the late Mrs Eugenie May Jenkins, who lived in Horwich.

These donations were accompanied by a letter from Mr Andrew Jenkins, the grandson of the late Mrs Jenkins, his letter stated ;

“On 16th of March my Nana passed away, she reached 99 years old and lived in Horwich all her life.”

“Eugenie May Jenkins was married to William Henry (Bill) and enjoyed Rivington on a daily basis.”

“We held the funeral yesterday (Webmaster ; Friday 21st March 2014) and asked not for flowers, but donations to Bolton Mountain Rescue Team.”

“Although I now live in South Manchester (Webmaster ; Heaton Moor, Stockport) I still enjoy walks / rides up Rivington and Winter Hill.”

“I am a member of Bolton Sailing Club, but my young children have put my sailing career on hold.”

“Keep up the good work, cheers, Andy Jenkins, also Ian, Leyanne, Cara, Maeve (Aged 2) and Dora (Aged 5)”

The whole team membership wishes to extend its condolences to Andrew (Andy) Jenkins and his family over the loss of his grandmother.

We would also like extend our sincere thanks to all including Andy Jenkins who contributed to this wonderfully thoughtful total donation of £150.00 in memory of the late Mrs Eugenie May Jenkins.
