We are raising £1,000 to donate monies to Macmillan Cancer Support, St Augustine's Church (North Shields) and a memorial bench in memory of Gordon Duff.

In lieu of flowers at Gordons funeral/memorial service, Gordon wanted to donate monies to support the local community.

Gordon battled cancer like a warrior for three years. He was supported by Macmillan nurses and a cohort of NHS specialist staff who provided the best care possible.

Gordons memorial service will be held at St Augustine's Church (North Shields) which has a close affiliation to the Duff family.

His memorial bench will be located near St Marys Island, which was a favourite dog walk for him and his family, and where many fond memories were made.
