Dear All,

As a family of the road, we have come together in the past to support our fallen brethren, and unfortunately, we find ourselves in a similar situation once again. I recently had a conversation with Martha, the daughter of our dear friend Foz, whom many of you will remember from the days at the iconic London Astoria and the live music scene. Martha and her Brother are currently facing a challenging time and could use our assistance.

If we can help with Funeral costs for Foz's kids it would be a significant help to Martha & Seth. With the end of the tax year approaching for many of us, I understand it’s a massive ask that those who are in a position to contribute, no matter the amount, extend a helping hand during this period of grief.

Your support will make an immense difference and provide much-needed relief to Martha and Seth. Please remember that any contribution, no matter how small, will go a long way in easing their burden and ensuring Foz's loved ones can navigate this difficult time with the necessary financial support.

Let us gather our collective strength and rally together once more to support a valued member of our community. Your generosity and compassion will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and support.

Some words from Martha…

Our dad (Steve/Foz) died on 18th January following complications after open heart surgery in December. He died with family by his side and his favourite music playing. We are completely devastated at losing him.

A million words couldn’t describe him. A massive character, a great advisor, dog whisperer, hilarious and a music and events master doesn’t even scratch the surface. Foz was one of a kind, a friend of many and often a wind up merchant. He was kind to his core and over the years has helped out so many.

A colourful life, where we’re sure everyone has a unique story of him. From working at the London Astoria and Concorde, to his quieter life in Saltdean over the past few years he has built community wherever he has gone. He truly had a love for life, chatting to anyone, calling things shitholes and sharing facts from his fountain of knowledge. He had so many adventures and we would like his final journey and resting place to truly represent the man he was and be a celebration of him.

We would be really grateful for any donations to go towards his funeral and a bench in his honour in Saltdean. All those who knew and loved Fozzy are welcome to attend the funeral.

Seth and Martha (Fozzy’s kids)
