Story

In Memory of Matthew ....

Matthew can only be described as an absolute gem, a true gentleman who showed great empathy and kindness to all at at Brownings, he was passionate, committed and a true visionary. Matthew truly cared for people around him and loved nothing more than catching up about life out of work and our families - always with a listening ear, gentle advice and kind words.

Matthew truly inspired, coached and led Team Brownings and he will be sorely missed by us all.

Matthew's family have nominated Ayrshire Cancer Support as our charity of choice for 2026 and Team Brownings will be fundraising throughout the year to support this amazing cause.

Matthew loved nothing more than a hike around some of Scotland's beautiful scenery and we are all honoured to take part in the Glasgow Kiltwalk in his memory.

Matthew will forever be part of our story.

How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard - A.A. Milne.
