Story

Darryl was an active member of the GSM Automotive Engineering department, he will always be remembered for his kind, polite and always helpful demeanour.

He went out of his way to learn new skills and was self-taught in several fields, often looking at issues and problems after work hours, glued to the internet.

Working throughout his illness when he could.

He had a mischievous, wicked and witty sense of humour, often adding colleagues to chats and societies without them knowing and sitting back laughing when they found odd emails or requests, all in good jest.

Holland and Barrett's best customer, made the most of the penny offers.

Always just “trying” the office sweets, ate most but didn't like them of course but tried another to just make sure.

Family came first.

Taken too soon but will always be remembered.

Velindre, the Hospital of Hope has been providing specialist treatment and supportive care to cancer patients and families for over 65 years.

Money raised for Velindre Charity helps fund ground breaking research and clinical trials, cutting edge treatments, specialist nurses, support services, therapies, equipment and so much more which are above those provided by the NHS – so donations really do have a significant impact on patients and their families.

Your donation will allow Velindre to continue to provide Hope for the future.
