Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

29th July 2010

At lunchtime today, the team welcomed a visit to our Ladybridge Hall Base / HQ by our friends and valued supporters, John Crawford and George Davis, respectively Treasurer and Secretary of the East Lancashire Mark Benevolent Fund Limited.

As previously reported the ELMBF LTD has donated £40,000.00 each to our Team, Oldham MRT and Rossendale and Pendle MRT specifically for new team vehicle purchases within each team. (Ours and OMRTs are now on order).

John and George were initially welcomed by Team Training Officer Elaine Gilliland and Team member Diane Blakeley, before meeting our Team Leader Garry Rhodes MBE.

The purpose of their visit was to be updated regards progress with commissioning our new vehicles and to discuss ’Dedication’ decals on the new vehicles to thank the ELMBF Ltd for their very kind and appreciated £40,000.00 donation.
