The Provincial Grand Master David Boswell, accompanied by the Deputy PGM Gary Allen, Assistant PGM David Good, Secretary of the East Anglian Mark Benevolent Association Tom Auber and Past Provincial Charity Steward Trevor Tinley visited the headquarters of Suffolk Search and Rescue to present a cheque for £5,802 to help with the purchase of defibrillators.
We were treated to an extensive tour of their operating base and shown the various vehicles, boats, kayaks and bicycles that they use to aid them in their search and rescue work.
The organisation is completely self funded, highly trained and a valuable resource to Suffolk with its many waterways, forest and coastal paths.
Paul Morris, a member of Hartismere Mark, is one of the members and part of the dog team. The picture shows him during a dog training session.
This follows on from similar EAMBA donations for much needed equipment for Lowland Seach and Rescue teams in Norfolk and Cambridgeshire.
