Andrew Franks of Manchester

Hi my name is Jonathan Patoff and I'm looking to help Andrew Franks who was seriously injured in the horrific attack that occurred on Yom Kippur at Heaton Park Synagogue where 2 people sadly and tragically lost their lives. Andrew whilst acting as a volunteer providing security at the shule, was viciously attacked by the terrorist and received serious head, neck and face injuries as well as a number of broken bones.

Andrew who sadly lost his wife Rama in March of this year to cancer, leaving him as the sole parent of Tamara who recently turned 16, is a quiet and unassuming good man who behaved heroically in defending the congregants of the Heaton Park Synagogue giving others time to lock the door and save lives. The physical and mental scars of his selfless heroism will take time to heal, I am looking to raise funds to help him and his daughter financially during this time.

Any donation will be gratefully received. with thanks Jonny Patoff.
