<div>We lost an unique and extraordinary man when Stu Housley passed away on 28th July 2025 at just 49 years old. He left behind his beloved wife Jo and 8 year old daughter Elin.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For decades, Stu poured his heart into bringing people together through music and events. He co-founded the <a href="https://biglovefestival.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Big Love Festival</strong></a><strong> </strong> and spent nearly 10 years building into an annual weekend celebration of love, music and performing arts. Stu was motivated by bringing people together and putting on a damn good party. It was the festival's ethos to keep it 'for the people' with affordable tickets an no corporate sponsorship.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Only a couple of weeks before he died Stu was diagnosed with Angiosarcoma, a very rare and aggressive cancer. Despite his rapidly declining health he still managed to attend Big Love Festival for a few hours and a week later married his partner Jo in an intimate ceremony in their garden. Just six days later Stu sadly passed away.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are hosting a celebration of life in Stu's honour: <strong>2pm-11pm Friday, August 22nd, 2025. </strong>at <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/WUmjV8G3UJxAMgEq9" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sully Sports and Social Club</a> . Free for all whose lives he touched.
</div>

</div>
<div><strong>How You Can Help:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are able to make a donation to help towards this <strong>Celebration of Life </strong>event, costs and support for Jo and Elin as they navigate this difficult time without Stu, any contribution would be very much appreciated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Every contribution matters</strong> - whether it's £10 or £500. Any funds beyond immediate expenses will go directly to Jo and Elin to help them rebuild their lives without Stu.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Stu spent his life giving to others. Now, it's our turn to give back to his family and ensure his legacy of bringing people together continues.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping us honour Stu and support the family he loved so deeply.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Big Love to all.</strong> ❤️❤️❤️
