On May 5th 2017 our lives were shattered when we received the devastating news that my brother, Tom, had been killed in Dubai. This traumatic situation was exacerbated by the complex and costly process that my family had to follow in order to bring Tom home.

Our experiences instilled in my family a desire to help others who found themselves in similar situations and inspired us to set-up the Repatriation Services Trust (http://www.repatriationtrust.org/). REST aims to help those who have lost a loved one overseas by providing advice, support and, where appropriate, funding.

To continue to raise funds, and in order to celebrate Tom's life, myself and REST (in conjunction with 54321Cymru) are completing a charity cycle challenge, starting on 4 May 2018. Myself and other 'Restees' will be cycling approx 155 miles from Chester to Cardiff, to the finish line at Tiny Rebel Brewery Bar.

Please support and donate to such a worthy cause, that will enable us to help others in need.
