During routine ‘Return to Base / HQ’ vehicle checks after we had attended the GMFRS Joint Exercise today, we noticed a possible puncture on our BM3 Land Rover Mountain Rescue Ambulance vehicle.

A immediate trip to our friends at Thistlethwaites Tyres of Bolton, saw them providing a very quick inspection, revealing no puncture but a possible problem with the tyre inner tube.

Very kindly they provided and fitted a new inner tube, even staying especially open for us.

We would like to thank once again Thistlethwaites Tyres of Bolton for their immediate attention to our problem, and their freely proffered advice and solution.
