Story
We are raising money to help David & Sylvia rebuild their smallholding barn which has been burnt by arsonists this week. David has spent 30 years building up his farm and still spends a lot of time there. He has lost hay/straw as well as machinery and also had tools and other machinery stolen only a couple of weeks ago.
He grows Christmas trees which he still cuts, digs and delivers himself every year.
David has given a lot to the community over the years so let’s repay the favour and help him. He does anything and everything for anyone! We are all heartbroken for him and want to help him get back on his feet.
We have set the target at £1000 but we are hoping to raise more!

4 years agoFunds have been withdrawn and sent over to David - he is over the moon with the generosity of the community. The money is going towards materials to rebuild. The page stays open (can’t work out how to change that!) so any more donations will get sent over to David as they arrive.
