    Story

    You may or may not know that a dear friend of ours Sarah Fyrth is facing a difficult time ahead as her husband Glen has had the misfortune of being diagnosed and treated for DSRCT (desmoplastic small round cell tumour), an extremely rare and aggressive cancer for which, his consultants have said that there is no further treatment available and his condition is now terminal.
    Sarah is an amazing wife, mother and great friend to many, and it is a testament to the courage they are showing as a family that has made myself and Tess think about what we can do to support them at this incomprehensible time. As family, friends and colleagues, you will all know that we T & I really enjoy a glass of wine... two or sometimes three and that to give this up for a the month of January will not be easy, but that is what we are planning to do, the whole of January with no alcohol, complete Dryathon, however knowing that we are doing it for such a wonderful, loving and hardworking family will be worth every minute. The funds raised will go to support Sarah, Oliver and Lillyshort at this deeply difficult time.

    If you feel that you could help by offering a donation, it would be gratefully received by the family. We just ask that you kindly respect the family's wishes for privacy during this difficult time.

      Well - that was tough!! I can't say I will be in a hurray to do that again! Quite honestly I like wine... it is good both for me and those around me when I've had a glass. T and I are celebrating the end of our sobriety with a night out in Marlow on Friday.. so watch out Marlow!! Genuinely though we are both just blown away by the generosity of our supporters and the support that we have received, I wish we had not had to do it for the reasons we did, but I promise you Glen we will raise a left handed glass to you Friday xx

      Well just a couple more days to go until we can enjoy a glass of the good stuff, can't come soon enough!! It's been harder than I thought but would do it forever if the reasons for doing it could be different. What I do know is that we are blown away by the support we have received and know that the money raised will be so appreciated by Sarah Lily and Oliver. 3 more sleeps xx

      Very emotional morning as we said goodbye to Glen, but what an amazing demonstration of how well he was loved by the number of people at the funeral, truly not a spare place.. hundreds of people, makes what we are doing even the more important...Sarah, Oliver, Lilly and Glens family are just the most amazing bunch of people, welcoming and so courageous in such difficult time. T & I are almost half way there and planning to raise a toast to Glen on the 1st February. xx..
