On Monday 15th April, whilst myself and my family were out, a fire started at our wonderful home of the last 20 years. This destroyed not only the cottage, but so  many possessions and things we cared about. This included the lives of two of our beautiful cats. We as a family are totally devastated and are hoping to raise money to pay for a deposit on a new house, as well as try and replace some of the things we lost. Any contributions would be so greatly appreciated, we would also ask that people respect our privacy during this difficult time.
