During the last couple of years the Muscles UK team have quietly developed a ‘Tool fund’, in recognition that volunteers using their own equipment sometimes need to pay out of their pocket for repairs or servicing as a result of using the equipment during a Muscles project. The person responsible for the Fund is Big Bernie Morgan, and the majority of the funds result from the unstinting efforts of the ‘Queen of Car Boot sales’ – Sarah Townsend.
This month the fund has already paid for a new chain saw, and (Bernie’s pride and joy) £400.00 worth of new cement mixer. (Significantly discounted thanks to Ridgeons, Martlesham Heath).
Appropriately, the mixer has been named – ‘Lady Sarah’.
