The Bolton MRT wishes to pass on its best wishes and congratulations to Roger Jones, aged 65, of Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Organisation on his becoming a MBE in the latest Honours Listing for services to Mountain Rescue.

Roger has been in mountain rescue for some 49 years now, all with the Ogwen Team and its forerunners, and was up to this year when he stood down from the position, a very long serving Team Leader with the OVMRO.

Roger is still actively involved in the Ogwen Team. (Further details may be found within the ’news’ pages of the Mountain Rescue England and Wales website, accessed from our links page)
