On the 23rd of July, we lost our wonderful dad, a man whose kindness, strength, and love touched everyone who knew him.

In his memory, we are raising funds to place a memorial bench in Apley Woods, a place he loved, took his dog Hamilton every day and where we shared so many cherished moments together.

This bench will be a peaceful spot where family, friends, and others can sit, reflect, and feel close to him. It’s our way of honouring his life and keeping his spirit alive in a place that he loved.

We are hoping to raise £3000 to cover the cost of the bench, the plaque, and any associated installation fees. Any donation, no matter the size, will mean so much to us and help us create a lasting tribute to someone who meant the world to so many.

Thank you for your support, kindness, and love during this time
