Story
*Please note that a week after Benstragic passing, his eldest two children were returned to their biological Mother. On the 5/6th of November I gave her £1700 towards Newbeds, mattresses, school uniform and to for the children
Any money raised after this date is solely for theAshleigh and the remaining 4 children who are struggling both emotionally and finacially. with the aimn of making the next few months more bareab On the 10th of October I received a phone call from my best friend informing me that her eldest Daughters partner had been killed instantly after being involved in a collision with a Tractor on the return journey of the morning school run in which he was a passenger in the car involved. Thankfully, the driver, her child and the Tractor driver were all unharmed.
Ben died instantly on his youngest Daughters 2ndBirthday - he was 32.
The reason I am asking for your help is that Ben has left behind his Fiancé Ashleigh, 24 (My Goddaughter) and 6 children and they are not entitled to any help. We need to move Ashleigh and the children closer to us in order for us to support her raising the children who have now been left without a Father and Ashleigh without her much loved Partner.
All money raised will go towards, relocation costs, new clothes and furniture for the children and settling bills.
Ben was a lovely man, loving partner and more than anything - a wonderful loving Father, who adored his children.
Thank you so much for any help you can give during this unexpected and heartbreaking time for all who knew and loved him.

1 year agoHello Everyone. It saddens me to write this post but I just wanted to make you aware of a fraudulent fundraising page doing the rounds (please see photos). On the page it is claimed the children never received any funds made from this page, as you can see a donation of £1700 has been given to Benji’s eldest two children's Mother who have now gone to live with her. The money donated has helped with purchasing new Beds, Mattresses, bedding, new school uniforms and toys for Xmas - so thank you all for contributing and helping all involved.

1 year agoTHANK YOU! Ashleigh has now received the funds you have all kindly donated to her. Bills have been paid, Heating oil and Electric been bought, clothes and shoes for Ashleigh and the children, furniture, carpets and white goods have all been purchased today. It was decided that some of the money raised would be reimbursed to Benji’s eldest 2 children’s Mother for Beds, Mattresses and School uniform as they have gone back into her care - This is something we insisted on and we hope those of you who have donated understand why we wanted to so.
