Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

29th August 2009

Today the team were in attendance at one of our supermarket collections, this time at the Morrisons Store, Blackhorse Street, Bolton.

During the morning, whilst our volunteer collectors were on duty, a lady stopped for a chat and wanted to make a postal donation to the Team. She was given the telephone number of Gillian Gregory, our Team Secretary, who received a phone call within an hour from the lady, promising to send a cheque towards our work. Gillian was delighted to receive by the next post a cheque for £50 from Miss Norma Ramm of Bolton, with an accompanying letter sending “all my Best Wishes to all that work with The Bolton Mountain Rescue – they all do a wonderful job”.

The team would like to thank all the many people who donated their spare change towards the teams activities, and would like to thank the staff and management of the store who allowed the team to raise the fantastic amount of £328.27.

A special thank you to Miss Ramm for your generosity and kind comments which are much appreciated by all members of the Team and their Support Group.
