Story
Welcome to the crowd fund raiser for a memorial bench for Adam Morgan Collier. A dearly loved and missed son, brother, uncle and friend, this bench will give his family and friends a place to sit and remember him.
We’ve managed to secure an excellent location for the bench at the Plantation in Hayle with a perfect view across South Quay over-looking Hayle, which was one of Adam’s favorite spots, and a place of ancient historical significance.
Adam was a much loved member of the community, a bastion for the rights of the underdog, and most notably, an avid music fan, musician and festival goer who worked for Oxfam at music festivals all over the UK. As such, any excess proceeds raised over the goal amount of £1026 will go to Oxfam.
Thank you so much in advance for being a part of this remembrance for Adam.

5 years agoAdam's Bench was installed today!! Thanks to your support - also the bench might have come in under-budget judging from the invoice from the Council so there's a potential donation to Oxfam, pending confirmation. Will let you all know the final amounts on what went where. Thanks again to everyone involved!! Artistic license used on the plaque - I think he'd approve, and hope you all do too. X

5 years agoWE'VE HIT 75%!! Truly AMAZING effort by everyone involved. It's especially difficult donating around Christmas time so everyone's generosity is staggering - THANK YOU!! The latest from the Town Clerk is that Adam's bench is being renovated and everything's on the go. The bench is a 'Master Bench' and has cast iron sides, 9 wooden slats and will replace the one you see in the cover photo. The final cost includes 15 years of maintenance (grass cutting, repairs, and yearly slat removal and oiling). Massive thanks once again x
