On December 21st 2017, a tragic accident occurred on the forecourt of the petrol station in Minsterley, Shropshire. Little Stelios Karsas, aged 19months was killed in a horrific accident with a car.

I don't feel it appropriate to go into detail on here as I'm sure that all in the local community will be aware of the tragic circumstances.

No amount of money will EVER replace little Stelios, nor will it help Stelios' family get over what happened that day however I would like to think that what we can do, as a community is pull together to raise some funds to help relieve some of the financial pressure and burden that the Karsas family may be experiencing at this very difficult time. Let's show them that we are all thinking of them.

We've probably all over spent at Christmas and have gone and bought stuff in the sales that we don't really need but please, take a moment to think about this poor family and what they are going through and donate just a few pounds. If every person can spare a couple of pounds, together, we can make a big difference.

I hope you've all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year and thank you in anticipation. Xx
