My son's whole livlihood stolen in 8 seconds

I'm Angie, mum to Chris, age 31. All his life he has worked so hard to build a future and provide for his family which now includes our grandson aged 3. Today, 10 minutes before leaving for work, someone stole his works vehicle fully loaded with his life's worth of tools, he is a hgv mechanic and can't work without them. We suspect that they were only interested in taking the vehicle but having only just started a new job, he is now left with a very uncertain future and unfortunately not in a position to replace the tools quickly in order to keep the wages coming in. Thanks to these people who destroy people without a second thought, he now faces difficult times ahead and financial ruin. As a family, we will pull together to raise as much as we can but we have no choice but to extend out to anyone who understands hardship and can help in any way they can. Unfortunately the tools were not insured whilst in this vehicle as due to recently changing jobs, the insurance was actually being put in place on the day the tools and vehicle were stolen.

This process is not something we have needed to do before but it's the only way we know right now on a day that has turned out to be a nightmare. Thank you for taking time to read this and a massive thankyou to anyone who can help.
