Bring Gareth Home

Gareth's beautiful sister Victoria posted the following on Saturday 20th March:

"It is with great sadness that I announce the death of our beloved brother, son and fiancé, Gareth. Munich police found his body in the river Isar on Wednesday, we don’t know any circumstances surrounding his death, but ask that you respect the family at this awful time.

We would like to thank everyone who has supported our search for Gareth, it really means the world to us. The money raised will go towards bringing his body home. We have created this Go Fund Me page to raise the rest of the money for repatriation and funeral. Any money that is left over will he donated to the Lucie Blackman Trust, who helped us in our search.

The family are all completely shattered. What is worse is that the German authorities are putting pressure on us to make arrangements for the body ASAP.

They want to bring Gareth home.

Under no circumstances do they want his body cremated somewhere so foreign to him. They want him cremated where he called home, in Lincoln, where he grew up.

The case worker at Lucie Blackman Trust has informed them that an estimated cost to get Gareth home will be 9k likely more due to to the current Covid situation.

They need your help.
I know so many of you have already dug deep, but on behalf of the family they need your help, once more be able to bring Gareth home.

Please share this fundraiser as wide as you can, and please donate as much as you can so we can #bringgarethhome."
