This week, we had the pleasure of visiting Patterdale Mountain Rescue Team for their 60th birthday party, and we were pleased to see the new boat being put into service ![]()

The appeal for funding the boat started a little while ago, and we , in conjunction with the Masonic Charitable Foundation were proud to pledge an amazing £13,396 , an incredible 17% of the cost
for this amazing venture.
Also, Mrs Lightburn, widow of one of our late Deputy Provincial Grand Masters
Captain Peter Lightburn, kindly donated £2,000, in memory of her late husband.
The boat will be used to transport the team across Ullswater , to access the mountains at the east side of the lake, as vehicle access is extremely restricted.
A fantastic addition to an awesome team!
