As many of you will know our own Dr Cormack is involved with the local Mountain Rescue Team.
We’d appreciate if you would take a moment to sign the petition in the post below or donate via the link if you can. Many thanks.

Arrochar Mountain Rescue Team need your help ❤️

Please take a moment to sign and share our petition 👉 https://c.org/zWPrDQxhw9

It’s a quick, free way to show funders and local government that this vital service matters, and that our community stands behind us.

Why are we asking?
Over the next 5 years, we need to fund two major projects:
- Replacing our aging vehicle fleet
- Extending our Mountain Rescue Post

If you, your friends, or family want to support what we do, you can also donate here 👉 https://www.justgiving.com/arrocharmrt/donate

Or could you help in another way?
- Organise fundraising through your workplace or community group
- Support us as a local business
- Provide materials or supplies for our building project

We know times are tough, but every bit of support makes a real difference.

Thank you 🙏
