Jim and Sabine Mather Children's Fund

On Sunday (1st November 2020) two beautiful young parents’ lives were tragically cut short on their drive home to collect their young children. They had been on a weekend away celebrating their anniversary. Many of you would have seen the Capel double tragedy on the news. Those who knew Sabine and Jim Mather would describe them as a friendly, caring, and down to earth couple who were loved by everyone they met. They were parents who would do anything for their children. Sadly Jethro (7) and Isaac (5) are now orphaned, and Jim’s older daughters Ella-Jade (13) and Sofia (15) have lost their father. Jethro and Isaac will now be raised by their grandparents, Elke and Steve. Jim’s older girls, Ella-Jade and Sofia, will living with their mum, Alicia. Needless to say, the emotional devastation of this accident is worsened by the financial implications of raising the children without the incomes of their parents.  Elke and Steve will now need to put aside their retirement plans to instead focus on raising the two young boys. Ella-Jade and Sofia will be living with their mum, and now need to come to terms with the devastating fact they will not see their father again. It is absolutely devastating for everyone. Please join me in assisting the families to cover their costs associated with this tragedy, the family needs all the help they can get during this sad time. We can’t bring back Jim and Sabine, but we can help to ease the financial burdens that lie ahead.
