In loving memory of Neil — Didge.

He was a quiet presence with a dark, wonderfully dry sense of humour and a sarcasm that could catch you off guard in the best way. Though he may not have realised it, he left a lasting impression on the people fortunate enough to know him. His warmth and wit meant more than he ever knew.

Cats held a special place in his heart, and in his memory we are raising funds for a cat charity, with a location in the Cotswolds — a cause that would have meant a great deal to him (even if he’d have made a sarcastic comment about all the fuss).

If you’re able to donate, however small, it would mean a great deal. More than anything, this is a way to honour a man who gave more to the world than he ever realised, and to remember him with love.

Thank you for helping us keep Didge’s memory alive.
