Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page.

Seans family are running a sponsored walk and charity fundraiser for the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust (KBRT) in memory of our beautiful son Sean Hughes.  

Sean passed away on the 12 June 2021, age 27, in Delaware USA.  The pain we felt on that day was just unbelievable, we couldn’t think straight and didn’t have the first clue how we would get him home.  On advice we contacted the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust, after just one phone call they took it all completely out of our hands, and within a few hours everything had been sorted out.In a time of such despair they took the worry of the logistics away.  

We will be forever grateful to KBRT and we want to raise this money to ensure that one day another family who find themselves in our position can also get a loved one home. This is a fantastic charity and any donations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you from Sean's Family
