Last year a good friend took his own life.

He was an Architect with many years of experience, as am I, yet one day the pressure became too much.

We don’t know why, and Tony’s family doesn’t know why. Something clicked, something completely unexpected and something no one could predict.

He has always put his family first and looked after and protected them. He never planned to leave them in an impossible situation, yet that is what has happened because the life insurance company that he and his family depended upon, have turned their back on them when help was most needed.

Aegon UK, has declined his wife’s life insurance claim due to a technicality. Tony’s wife, Billie, and her two daughters aged 10 and 16, are left with the prospect of selling their family home because their loving husband and doting father took his life just 8 days too early, as viewed by the Insurance company.

To try and avoid this desperate situation becoming any worse, we are reaching out to the Architectural and Construction community to help this family raise money to save their home.

All donations from individuals or professional practices will be gratefully received and will make a massive difference.
