Wednesday 6th May , our family lost Josh in a tragic fatal collision on the M5, which left the motorway closed for many hours. While many people were understandably inconvenienced by the closure, our family’s lives changed forever. The traffic eventually moved on, journeys continued, and people got home , but Josh never did, and never will.

Josh was a much loved son, partner, father, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend. He was a bright, kind hearted and selfless man with the biggest heart, someone who touched the lives of everyone he met. He brought so much warmth, laughter, and love to the people around him. Most importantly, he was an incredible dad to his beautiful 2 year old son, Caden, who will now grow up without his daddy beside him.

Josh’s passing has left behind his partner, Chloe, who is now facing the heartbreaking reality of raising their little boy alone. He was taken far too soon, and the hole left behind in all of our lives is impossible to put into words.

Like many young families, insurance and financial protection just weren’t things fully in place yet, because at that age, you never truly believe something like this could happen to you.

We are raising funds to help support Chloe and Caden through the difficult months ahead helping with funeral costs, easing financial pressures, and giving them some stability while they try to navigate this unimaginable loss.

Any donation, no matter how small, would mean the world to our family. And if you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping Chloe, Caden, and our family in your thoughts.

In honour of Josh, hold your loved ones a little tighter, say the things you mean, and live life to the fullest. Wednesday this week, Josh woke up not knowing it would be the last time. He kissed his partner, Chloe, and his little boy, Caden, goodbye and told them he’d see them after work a moment no one ever imagines will be their last.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support
