    Story

    Hi everyone, my name is Ann and I am the granddaughter-in-law to the most incredible grandad and true old-school gent, by the name of Geoff Fisher. Geoff has been a widower for the past 5 years, so to pass time, he has rekindled his love for painting and ceramics. He has quite a collection of beautiful paintings and ceramic statutes these days! The cover photo shows Geoff in action!

    Geoff has recently turned 92 and one of his wishes is to travel to his homeland of South Africa and to get to visit his mother's grave... he doesn't believe in charity and refuses all financial help from his children and grandchildren but what he would like to do, in order to sponsor his trip, is to sell some of his paintings and ceramics! Hence this page....

    We are trying to raise money for the trip and in return post his work as a gesture of appreciation to those who are able to sponsor £100 and above. You will love his work and if you'd like to see his current collection, please just drop me an e-mail to mrsg84@gmail.com

    All his work is hand-made to the highest standard, especially considering his age! Please help the loveliest 92 year old fulfil his dream!

    Geoff left South Africa over 60 years ago and unfortunately hasn't had a chance to come back, this would be his first opportunity! Seeing as Geoff cannot travel alone, the money raised would cover flights and accommodation for Geoff and his 3 grandchildren - my husband and his 2 cousins.

    Thank you for reading and I truly hope the lovely Geoff gets to sell his art work and gets to visit his home...
