Gillian Gregory our Team Secretary, as a member of our wonderful Support Group, recently ordered a five feet long printed PVC Banner from Express Banners Limited of Horwich (www.expressbanners.ltd.uk)

The banner advertising the teams name, and to be used on Team events was priced at £23.00 + VAT. (Unfortunately despite our Charity status we have to pay VAT)

On Friday 25th April, Phil Deary of Express Banners Limited, Print Production Department, phoned Gillian to tell her the completed banner was ready for collection, and added the fantastic news that as the banner was for Bolton Mountain Rescue Team, Express Banners Limited had very kindly agreed to donate the new banner completely free of charge.

On Saturday 26th April, Gillian called to collect this very kind gift and gave Phil Deary thanks on behalf of the entire team membership, for such a nice supportive and generous surprise to the team.
