In memory of Abigail Hudson

Following the desperately tragic events of Saturday 19th October, when we lost our amazing best friend Abigail Hudson, a very close-knit group of us have been fortunate enough to have spent a lot of time with Ryan and Bella, offering help, support and comfort where we can.

The courage, strength, and positivity that they have shown in supporting each other and Ava has been nothing short of breathtaking. In life, you're generally discouraged from meeting your heroes through fear of being disappointed or let down. Ryan, Bella, and Ava are our new heroes, and there's been no disappointment, just hope, inspiration, and awe at their incredible bond and strength as a family. Abbi shines through in all of them.

Many of you have made contact asking how you can help, as they start to try to establish a new normal, all whilst supporting Ava on the long road to recovery. We've spoken to Ryan at length about this, and in his usual unselfish fashion, he's said Abbi adored her garden and flowers at home, and that it was her wish to get her dream outdoor space fully finished, as a place to spend precious time together as a family.

With that in mind, and with Ryan and Bella's approval, we've set up a Go Fund Me page to help make Abbi's dream garden wish come true. Ryan has been overwhelmed by hearing how positively Abbi influenced so many people, whether it be at Perryfields, in the Howley community, as a friend, or through dance with Next Level. So, if you're able to help with this and want to offer some support, it would be massively appreciated. Let's help provide a beautiful and safe space that will establish and flourish as time moves on, where Ryan and the girls can remember their wife, best friend, and Mum. ❤️
