Buxton Mountain Rescue Team and Buxton (St John) First Responders were chosen as “2012 Charities of the Year” by High Peak Golf Club Captains, Cheryl Scowen and Paul Waring.

Throughout their year as club captains they encouraged club members, family and friends to raise money for their chosen charities and, at a small reception at High Peak Golf Club last week, cheques of £1,430 were presented to both the First Responders and to Buxton MRT.

We wish to express our sincere gratitude to Cheryl and Paul for choosing Buxton MRT to be one of their charities and for all the hard work that has gone into raising the money.  A huge thanks also to to everyone who supported the many events which helped raise the donation.
