BOLTON Mountain Rescue Team which is providing safety cover during the Commonwealth Games can now accept secure online donations via their website.

UK taxpayers can add 28 per cent to their donation, at no cost to themselves, via the Inland Revenue's Gift Aid system.

Donations are needed for the appeals for a replacement £30,000 minibus and a new £18,000 radio system.

The team is also contributing towards the Commonwealth Games, providing six days of safety cover for spectators and competitors at the mountain bike and road race events in Rivington.
