On Sunday 3rd May 2015, we assisted an NWAS Emergency Ambulance crew with the stretcher evacuation of a collapsed man from the edge of Sunnyhurst Wood, Darwen (Please see website incident report dated the same)
Today our Team Leader Garry Rhodes MBE received a very kind card of thanks from the wife of the man involved, Mrs D. Bury, enclosing a thoughtful £30.00 donation from Everton Street Bowling Club, Darwen.
Addressed to Bolton Mountain Rescue Team the card stated:
“Dear Sirs,
Please find enclosed a cheque for £30.00 donated by Everton Street Bowling Club, Darwen.
My husband, John Bury, is a member of the bowling club and he was assisted by BMRT on Sunday, 3rd May, when he slipped in Sunnyhurst Wood, Darwen.
Many thanks, Mrs D Bury.”
The whole team membership would like to express its sincere thanks to all at Everton Street Bowling Club, Darwen, for this kind and thoughtful donation, and we also wish good health to Mr John Bury.
