I'm overwhelmed by the support and generosity of people - thank you all so, so much. To have raised so much money in just a week is incredible. This really will mean the world to Beryl and her family. For those of you that have asked about making non-financial donations, I'm waiting to hear what is happening with regards rehousing Beryl, once we know more we can look to set up a way for people to donate goods and furniture if that's something people would like to do. Thank you all so very much. You're all amazing. Andy

Thank you all so much for your support, the family are incredibly touched by the efforts of the community to help Beryl. I’m so happy that we’ve hit the initial target so quickly, and after speaking to the family today I’m going to keep the fund open for a bit longer. The family have been into the bungalow today to try and salvage what they can, but other than a few ornaments and memories, everything has been destroyed. Beryl is recovering well in hospital and is overwhelmed by the flowers, support and donations. Thank you all so much x
