Fledgling business lost in fire
Donation protected
On the night of Fri 2nd March my good friend Christine’s son’s hopes dreams and bloomin’ hard work went up in flames.., quite literally.
This is one of those families who doesn’t expect anything from anyone but works hard to make their own living.
Adrian and his friend maintained their own long hours low paid jobs whilst trying to set up their own fledging auto repair business, they recently moved from their own backyard to a premises in Lawford and in doing so moved their business, their tools and even some personal projects such as a boat and Jag restoration to the premises.
But before they even had time to insure it the whole place and all their blood sweat and tears went up in smoke!
These two two guys didn’t ask anyone for anything.., they were trying to improve their own lives but now they’re devastated.
I’m hoping maybe we can get them back on track and show them it all hasn’t come to nought..,
See their personal story below:
Those of you who live near us may have heard about the fire that broke out at Lawford last night. One of those units was where my son and his partner had a workshop. The whole workshop and everything in has been destroyed. The have nothing left and nowhere to work from. Thankfully it's things and not lives lost but they had worked so hard for this dream and it's heart breaking to see all their dreams in ashes. Aj's post is below. I hope we can help them. There isn't insurance covering this so everything is gone. As a parent I want to do anything I can. Any help or ideas would be welcomed.

As some of you may have seen in the news today a fire broke out at some workshops in Lawford, Manningtree in the early hours of this morning.
Thankful no one was seriously hurt but Sadly our workshop was affected and all our stock, equipment, tools etc have all been completely destroyed in the blaze including my Jaguar XF which I was carrying out repairs on.
Words cannot describe how distraught myself and Chris are. We built E&C Auto Spares Ltd from scratch and not just the financial side of it but so many working hours, blood, sweat and tears went into building the business up to what it is today and it’s all been taken away from us overnight. We have unfortunately had to cease trading for the time being.
I thank all my family & friends for their support on very emotional day.
if anyone can spare a pound or two or even some tools to get them back on track and give them hope then please do xxx
