Story
My name "The Big Grey Man" is taken from the Scottish Mountain Legend "The Big Grey Man" of Ben McDui - a mythical cryptid who roams the Cairngorm Plateau.
It seemed right to try and give something back in return, so I am fundraising for Scottish Mountain Rescue while I promote my self titled new album.
If provide an email address, I'll send you one of 200 codes to download my new album for free at:
thebiggreyman.bandcamp.com/album/the-big-grey-man
As an additional "thankyou" you have my absolute blessing not to use the code or listen to any of it. So you can GiftAid your donation with a clear conscience either way.
I'll not be using the emails for mailing lists etc. but you can follow me on BandCamp, Twitter (twitter.com/thebiggreyman) or Facebook (www.facebook.com/biggreyman) for details of live dates or future releases.
Scottish Mountain Rescue (SMR) represents 25 Mountain Rescue Teams (MRTs) made up of highly trained volunteers who are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to respond to emergencies and carry out a specialist search and rescue service in the mountains and remote communities in Scotland to keep people safe and help people if and when they get into difficulty. Together we are here to save lives in the outdoors.
SMR and our 25 MRTs are all charities. In addition to representing these member MRTs, SMR also serves three Police Scotland MRTs and one RAF MRT. We are proud to have more than 850 dedicated volunteer team members who are always prepared and willing to drop everything they are doing to assist total strangers.
The remote nature of the Scottish mountains, the terrain and the prevailing weather mean that many search and rescue operations in Scotland simply cannot be carried out without large numbers of volunteers able to go out on foot and who can be mobilised quickly. It often is simply not possible to search for people by helicopter in Scotland, because low clouds often prevent the helicopters from flying.
These volunteers are the foundation of the mountain rescue community. Each MRT and team member saves lives in the Scottish outdoors
