Show support to the Family of the Oakwood Inn

Hello everyone, my name is Samantha and today along with the rest of the residents of Holland on Sea have been devastated by the scenes which unfolded at our beloved Oakwood Inn.

Just after 10am this morning lightning struck the chimney at the rear of the pub, destroying their upstairs flat and causing vast damage to the pub.

I am fortunate to have the “Lauren’s” as close friends and am just so thankful that they and their beautiful children are safe and unharmed but can’t imagine the shock and upset that lays ahead of them.

The outpouring of support and offers of clothing and supplies for the kids has already been overwhelming, they are blown away with the kindness shown by everyone.

Being self employed, with literally nothing left but the clothes they had on I would love to give them some financial help and would ask for any donation you felt able to give in which I know is a tough time for many.

I would be so grateful if you could share this page and thank you so very much for your help and support.
