Some very sad news, we’ve been informed that our former member, Trevor Clayton, passed away on Wednesday 23rd September.

Trevor had been diagnosed with acute leukaemia about a year ago and was very much himself right up until the end. He died very peacefully, and at home.

Out thoughts are with his daughter Helena and her family.

Trevor can be seen on the left in the photograph below.
