Hi, Our good friend John Bayliss who is a well known hard working plumber in the Redditch area had his van and tools stolen on Friday night (16th Jan) from outside his house. Whilst John has insurance, it doesn’t get anywhere near the actual value of all his tools, equipment and parts.

People who know the psychological trauma of theft will appreciate it is not all about money, I know for a fact that some of the stolen items had significant sentimental value.

Local plumbers are an integral part of any community and especially needed this time of year when heating and hot water in our homes is so critical.

Anyone who knows John and his family knows he would never ask for help so a few of us thought we’d take it into our own hands and help get him get back up and running.

We’d be grateful for any kind of contribution.
