Hello Folks,

Unfortunately tomorrow, many of us will attend the Funeral of our good friend Des.
It will be an opportunity for us all to pay our respects to someone who made us all feel like the only person in the room, who held down more friendships than we've had hot dinners, and who at every turn tried to help not only his friends and family, but strangers, and the needy.

We'd like to offer up the opportunity for anyone who can afford to do so, to help donate towards the costs of Des' Funeral. Some of these costs could be covered by ourselves and would help make the coming days, weeks and months that little bit easier to deal with for those closest to Des.

Any surplus fundraising will go directly to The Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice which did such a wonderful job of making Des' last few weeks very comfortable.
