Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

26th December 2014

Today, as on Boxing Day 2011, Boxing Day 2012 and Boxing Day 2013, at the very kind long standing invitation of Go Outdoors, Wigan, Store Management, we were invited to hold another team collection alongside the stores Boxing Day Sale Event.

Taking with them Team Land Rover Defender Mountain Rescue Ambulance Vehicle call sign ‘BM2’ and team display material, team call out list members Nick Berry and Chris Tennant, who both also work for Go Outdoors, Wigan, were present to answer the many questions from interested members of the public, and obviously also to collect for the team.

The Boxing Day Sales Event was a great success as was our team collection, with the fantastic total of £210.24p being raised for the team with thanks to the store management for allowing us to collect and of course all the shoppers and visitors to the Go Outdoors, Wigan, Store who so kindly contributed to the team.

On a national basis for Mountain Rescue England and Wales, Go Outdoors are very actively fundraising in their stores for all the MRTs in England and Wales, a fantastic show of much appreciated support.
