Help Con & Carmen rebuild their stolen home
Donation protected
Just 4 weeks before their wedding, my best friends Connor and Carmen had their van stolen - a van that they were converting to be their home.
For 2 years, they've been saving every penny with the aim to drive off on their honeymoon and start a new, simpler life. They were going to go freelance and travel - a big risk for them both, but something they were so excited to do!
Con left his job 2 months ago and has been working non-stop to turn the van in to a home whilst Carmen has been working day and night to fund them both. Their heart and soul - not to mention blood, sweat and tears - has gone in to building the next chapter of their lives as newlyweds...a future that has now been cruelly stolen from them.
The van was a white ford high top transit with high vis back, large fan and small red siren on top. Reg number LJ13 UZL. The van was stolen on 12/4/19 from St Mary Cray, Kent - last seen at 10.30pm.
This couldn't have happened to a kinder, more hardworking, genuine couple. With just 4 weeks until their wedding and what was meant to be the celebration of their new life on the road, I'd love to be able to:
1) Remind them of the power of human kindness in the face of this heartbreaking and cruel event.
2) Help them to still reach for their dream of building their first home.
If the van is found, any funds raised would help to replace or repair whatever might have been taken and/or damaged. If the van is not found, they will hopefully be able to buy a new van with the insurance. Funds raised will go toward the renovation of the new van and replacement of tools, materials and furnishings.
Every little helps - thank you so much in advance for any donations. It truly would mean the world to us all.
Love Siân (their best friend) and Jane (whose idea this was!) x
UPDATE: I can't believe we've hit the target so quickly!!! From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU! A million times! Every donation is so incredibly kind. Further donations would be more than welcome - let's really smash this target and give them a beautiful start to their new life together! THANK YOU AGAIN! Siân xxx
