Oldham Mountain Rescue Team were extremely grateful to receive a donation of essential PPE from rope access specialists and long-term supporters Vertical Access Limited.
The eye protection will be used on an upcoming helicopter exercise.
It’s assistance like this from the local community that helps the team keep doing what they do.
