Story
Young teenager, Josh Boothman, tragically died on 24th September after falling in the River Erewash in Stapleford, Nottingham. This page has been set up to raise money for Josh's family to help them through this difficult and unexpected tragedy.
All money rasied will be given to Josh's family who have pledged to donate any excess to charities close to Josh's heart.
Josh's parents, Mark and Gwen, would like to thank you in advance for all money raised in their Son's name.
Thank you

8 years agoThank you so much to the staff and customers at Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren (JD Wetherspoon) pub for raising nearly £420 for Josh's family. Adding this to the £320 cash received today means we have already smashed £5000 (less Just Giving's 5% fee)! Thank you so much for your continued and unwavering support........it really does mean the world to Josh's family x

Terribly saddened by what happened to Josh. I have children of a similar age and cannot imagine what his family must be going through.
