Adam

UPDATE: thankyou so much for all the kind donations. Adams funeral will be held at Lodge Hill, at 9:15 on Wednesday 4th September. All are invited ❤️ Adams family have arranged his funeral through social services, so the money raised here is going to be used to help Julie buy some flowers. Unfortunately i am on holiday on the 4th so i am going to meet Julie this week to choose some flowers and anything else she needs for the funeral .

I have created this fundraiser after hearing the very sad news of Adam's passing. Adam was a homeless man who usually sat by Aldi in Sheldon with his partner Julie. Adam was 35.

When i saw Julie today, she is understandably distraught. An Aldi staff member asked if there was anything they could help her with. Julie said she would like to get him a coffin.

I suggested fundraising to Julie so that Adam can have a basic funeral. Julie was cautious of doing this because she doesnt want people to think she will take the money for herself, this is heartbreaking. I told her that I could manage this for her. So it will be myself who manages this account and I will stay in contact with Julie.

I know so many people will be touched by the news of Adams passing as he was a kind hearted and gentle soul who always made the effort to be kind despite his circumstances. I personally will really miss seeing his face. Adam never asked for anything. When asked, he would often request a milkshake or some biscuits. He deserved so much more, i hope by doing this we can help cover basic costs so that Julie can give her partner a proper send off.

In the case that the government help towards funeral costs, this money will be used to help Julie , so that she may purchase the coffin of her choice, flowers etc. Any left unused funds will go to a local homeless charity- I will keep the page updated ❤️
