We are asking for help after the sudden and heartbreaking loss of our beloved dad and husband, Mattie, who tragically passed away by suicide on 11/05/2026 at just 46 years old.

Our mum, Vannessa, has been left completely devastated and heartbroken, suddenly facing life without her husband and as a single mother to four children - Kiya (24), Conor (19), Romy (15), and Maddie (12).

Mattie was deeply loved by his family and everyone who knew him. He was the main provider and breadwinner for our household, and his sudden passing has left not only an unimaginable emotional void, but also a huge financial burden on our family. We are all struggling to come to terms with the shock and pain of losing him so suddenly.

As we try to navigate this tragedy, we are reaching out for support to help ease the overwhelming financial pressure that has followed. Any donations raised will go towards:

• Funeral and memorial expenses for Mattie

• Household bills and urgent living costs

• Outstanding household expenses and financial commitments

• Supporting the children with school and college expenses

• Immediate counselling and emotional support for the children

• Helping provide stability and security in the difficult months ahead

Asking for help is incredibly difficult, but any support, no matter how small, would mean so much to our family.

If you can't donate, please consider sharing and keeping us in your thoughts and prayers during this unimaginable time.

Thank you for your kindness and support,

Vannessa, Kiya, Conor, Romy & Maddie.
