Pensioner robbed of equipment from his allotment

Hi everyone I am the landlady of a local community pub in Harlow. We are trying to raise some funds to replace stolen tools and equipment from one of our local pensioners Fred Searing. He was recently robbed of tools at his allotment in Harlow.

Our Fred is a 91 year old very active lovely man who would fix and build things on his allotment for his own use to grow wonderful fresh produce which he shares with regulars and friends. He is a kind and lovable part of our community. For those who know him will also know he has been through a lot in recent years. His allotment and woodworking was his everyday escape come rain or shine. We have been offered some tools and will gladly accept them however some of his specialist woodworking tools will cost a bit so are requesting a bit of help. I appreciate times are tough but I know what you are all capable of when it comes to supporting our community. Thank you
