Mark Bell of Blade Access said: “It is great to have the opportunity to give something ‘big’ back to the community. As able bodied people we are so fortunate not to have the restrictions these youngsters face in their day to day lives and to see how pleased they all were today made all the effort priceless. Getting the 70 metre platform wasn’t easy but we managed to relieve the unit from a site in Manchester where it had been working to attend this special occasion. It will return back to work this evening.”
