In loving memory of Andy Gowling. In lieu of flowers for his funeral, it was Andy's wish that mourners donate to two worthy causes.

The first cause is to install benches in Skegness Hospital Gloucester Ward. These benches would provide a place for reflection for relatives of loved ones who are receiving rehabilitation or palliative care on the ward. During his cancer treatment, Andy would often visit Di on the ward, and help her around the garden to make it a nice place for visitors. Fitting a bench or two in his memory would be a fitting tribute to Andy.

The second cause Andy wished mourners to contribute to is the Royal Naval Benevolent Trust. This fund assists thousands of people who are serving, or have served in the Royal Navy, and their dependents, who have found themselves in need or distress. Andy was very proud to have served in the Royal Navy, and always worked hard to support his naval family and shipmates.

All Donations are welcome and appreciated by Di, and Andy's family.
