On Monday 25th July 2016 in the Oswaldtistle area my best mate Andy Whelan had his van broken in to and all his personal tools removed, his only way of earning money for his family.

If this isn't bad enough Andy is trying to hold it together for his family while his 4 year old daughter battles a very rare form of cancer.

I am trying to raise enough money to replace all the tools and allow Andy to return to work and provide for his family during this very difficult time. This will also allow him to retain some sense of normality while his family go through hell.

Unfortunately Andy's employers don't have contents insurance on the van and as such Andy has lost everything, meaning he is left unable to work.

Any information the theft please get in contact.
