Neil was so much loved by his family, especially wife Gill and daughters Claire, Lisa and Kelly-May. He was also well known in Blackpool football and cricketing circles.
Neil was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease MND Association in January this year, and he sadly died only 2 months later.
The Bradshaw family have created Remembrance Wood in Wrea Green so that families of lost loved ones have somewhere peaceful to go and be close with their loved ones. One of the first to have a tree planted here was Gill Singleton - Neil’s loving wife. Neil always loved trees, including his big cherry blossom in his garden, so this memorial tree is ideal and Neil would have loved it. It is the perfect place to remember his gentle soul.
The aim is to raise enough money to purchase a memorial bench which will provide a resting place for the family and friends of Neil when they visit the wood. It would be even more wonderful if we can raise enough to buy a bird house or bird box too.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and all donations are very welcome.
