Story
Last weekend our good friend Gareth Witts passed away suddenly in his sleep. As many of you know Gareth lives in Sweden and we need to get him back home to his family in England.
Gareth is much loved by his family and friends, he was a happy good natured guy who always looked on the bright side of life even in difficult times. We don’t want the cost of getting him home to be an additional burden for his family at this difficult time. Please could you help with any donations big or small to help towards the cost of repatriation, funeral and associated costs .
Please feel free to share with anyone you feel can help.
Thank you for your support.
