My beloved husband Josh Matthews passed away on 24th April 2025. He was and always will be dearly loved and missed by myself and all his family and friends

Something so dear to Josh’s heart was charity work, A stand out for Josh though was working with Leeds Children’s charity at Lineham farm where 3/4times a year he would spend the day in the woods playing games and toasting marshmallows with underprivileged children! He enjoyed seeing their happy faces and giving them a day to remember! Collecting Pjs and buying presents for them at Christmas was a firm favourite! Even planning to take his mini bus licence to collect the children so they can enjoy a fun packed day.

If anyone would like to donate to this charity all donations will be going towards new hammocks and fire pits in the woods.

Leeds Children’s Charity at Lineham Farm is dedicated to brightening children’s lives by providing unforgettable breaks and valuable learning experiences. We work with the most disadvantaged children in the city, offering them respite from difficult, and sometimes abusive, home lives. A break at Lineham Farm is filled with adventure, fun and learning in a safe and happy environment – it’s childhood as it should be.
