Stanky Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 To make more visible, there is a Fundrazr I've set up for collecting money for a wreath for his funeral and anything left over donated to an epilepsy charity as requested by his mother. It can be found here: https://fundrazr.com/21KgC4?ref=ab_f6f8Y5 Any and all donations appreciated. trigger, LabRat, danthecapriman and 34 others 37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanky Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 Well done everyone, we're up to a highly respectable £880 at time of writing. I'm keeping this open until the 31st, can we see if we can hit £1k? Pat on the back for everyone, this forum IS what it always was never meant to be. Superb work everyone, in difficult circumstances.

Stanky Posted April 1, 2018 Author Share Posted April 1, 2018 I've now closed the Fundrazr in Greg's memory, we raised £1018.48 which will be about £1200 once we remove handling fees and add on Giftaid. Really well done everyone. I'll update this in due course when the donations are passed to the nominated charity. rantingYoof, Datsuncog, Skizzer and 16 others 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanky Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 Sums have been done, my wife has taken a step closer to divorcing me on grounds of unreasonable behaviour, and we have a final number. The Fundrazr raised a total of £1018.48 The total after fees and PP handling charges is £966.93. We will donate £483.47 to Epilepsy Scotland and £483.47 to The William Quarrier Scottish Epilepsy Centre with GiftAid which will turn the donations into £604.33 for each charity. Well done all, this has been a great response in difficult circumstances. Lacquer Peel, Dirk Diggler, privatewire and 32 others 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanky Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 We got an email today from Epilepsy Scotland: Hello Autoshite Thank you for the speedy reply. Please accept our most sincerest condolences on the loss of your colleague. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time. I have received your Gift Aid declaration so thank you for sending that on. Due to that we are able to claim an additional £119.12 on the donation meaning a grand total of £595.62 after the Paypal fee had been deducted. £595.62 is an amazing total to raise so please thank anyone who has been involved. Yours sincerely Adam MartinFundraising AssistantEpilepsy Scotland, 48 Govan Road, Glasgow G51 1JL Slartibartfast, CreepingJesus, Cavcraft and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split_Pin Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Fantastic effort all round and also for the card that wasn't just added to by AS members, but it was also created by one too. All things considered, I do hope Greg's family are bearing up OK. puddlethumper, Pillock, Cavcraft and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Absolutely brilliant, it shows what AS and it's membership are truly like. Timewaster and The Moog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
