Story

As from the 8th June 2015 I (Andrew Critchley) will be staying sober until the end of October 2015. No alcohol will past my lips in all this time , and for all the people that know me will understand that this is a mammoth task. One of the causes I am doing this for is the charity UNIQUE which is for the study into chromosome disorders , the reason for this is because my beautiful grandson Luis (see photo ) has just been diagnosed with 5Q14.3 deletion syndrome for which there is only around fifty reported cases. Basically he may never walk or talk and will probably suffer from epilepsy throughout his life, but I can assure everyone he will be greatly loved by his parents Michael and Katie, his older sister Olivia and all the family. I know there is always someone asking for charity these days, but please give whatever you can afford it's all greatly appreciated.
