Yesterday afternoon, young Chloe Southworth and her mum Karen Southworth called briefly at our Ladybridge Hall Base / HQ, meeting team member and former Team Chairman Ken Oakes, presenting him with a very kind cheque donation of £25.00 from Chloe, arising from some fundraising at school split between some pupils chosen charities.
Chloe’s mum Karen, has informed us that Chloe has another fundraiser planned soon, a 40s night, and that they will see us again after this, Chloe’s latest fundraising event for us.
Regular readers will be aware via our website that on Good Friday 2014, the team came to the rescue of Chloe Southworth, who suffered a serious leg injury on Rivington Pike whilst enjoying the sunny day with her father, uncle and cousin.
Chloe was immediately tended to by team members on the day, and was flown to hospital by the North West Air Ambulance (Please see website ‘News’ report dated Good Friday, 18th April 2014).
Since her accident that day, Chloe has very kindly offered to support the North West Air Ambulance and Bolton Mountain Rescue Team charities in her role as Rose Queen for 2014-2015 at St. Peter’s Church in Chorley.
We all acknowledge the absolutely fantastic effort Chloe is going to, along with her many supporters to in turn support us and the NWAA, what an amazing feat for this young girl, supported by her mum, dad and family.
Obviously all the team membership wishes to thank Chloe for her continuing tremendous support of both ourselves and the North West Air Ambulance.
