Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

8th January 2014

Today we have received a kind ‘Guestbook’ entry within our website, which is also recorded here, from GMP Missing Person Search Manager Chris Moody, regarding the teams role in the search for a missing man in the Northenden / Wythenshawe area of Manchester, on Saturday evening, 4th January 2014, our Incident 14 – 2014.

“To all the team members who attended call out 14/2014.”

“Please accept my personal thanks for all your efforts in the search, based around Gib Wood at Wythenshawe. As usual your experience and expertise was a significant aid to GMP in circumstances where an effective, thorough and timely search was required. I know from conversations on the night that GMP staff, who had no previous experience of working alongside yourselves, were very impressed by the level of commitment and knowledge that was displayed. They now better understand your role and capabilities as a result.”

“Thanks to the efforts of all concerned the missing man was found and, after treatment, was returned to his family. I know that they too are grateful to all those involved.”

“It was great to see some familiar, and slightly older, faces amongst the throng of willing volunteers.”

“GMP Search Manager, Chris Moody.”
