Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Ross Burton was my best friend and unfortunately he lost his battle with cancer on the 10th September 2023 aged just 37 years old. Ross is survived by his lovely wife Sarah and wonderful daughter Freyja-Rose.

Ross and I loved to play boardgames so I’m holding an event in our local gaming cafe Roast & Roll Banbridge, a wonderful little cafe that has been so important to me. The event will run from 1-5PM and entry is £10 with all money going to two charities Brainwaves NI and Cancer Fund for Children, I can’t split a just giving pot so I asked Sarah which charity she’d like the just giving funds to go to. This page will be supporting Cancer Fund for Children who has been so good to Ross and his family before and since his passing.

I’m making this page for those that can’t attend the event but would still like to donate.
