Being 1 of the 5 kids my mum raised on her own took sacrifice and strength. That strength and wearing her heart on her sleeve is a main part of how I became the man I am today. She was the first to help people that meant something to her in whatever way she could.

She used to say to me now we are all grown up ‘she did her job’ So now it’s time for me and the family to do ours.

I’ll be raising a small amount to help lessen the burden which will cover things like house removal and little but important things such as flowers for the funeral which will help make the best send off we can.
