Helping Tony & Family after TRL Motors fire

Hi, My name is Charlotte. My daughter Chloe has asked to set up this page to help her Grandad Tony & her Dad Robert after their MOT station was burnt down yesterday 9/03/25, leaving them both now with no income & no business.

TRL Motors has been in the Eastwood/East Dene community for over 40 years. I'm sure anyone who lives in these areas knows about this garage & that Tony {the owner} is such a great person. Even people who have moved out of Rotherham come back each year to have their car tested by TRL as they are so genuine.

He has been terrorised for the past few months, having his belongings stolen, his business broken into on a regular occurrence & also was physically assaulted being pushed to the floor & threatened with a hammer.

Yesterday was he final straw & them now having lost everything they will struggle to pay bills etc. They will not be able to open the garage again so they will do their best to clean it up to make it safe again to potentially allow others to use the space.

They've had savings stolen in the robberies previous to the fire so are left with absolutely nothing to live off.

For now though they need some help.

If you could spare even a fiver it would mean so much to them
