Hi All,

As you are all most likely aware, following the press release from Crystal Palace, my friend and colleague Ian Reynolds passed away last week from COVID-19. He worked for the London Ambulance Service for 32 years, and he has been leading the palace pitch recovery team for years (for which I have worked on).
Ian leaves a wife and two sons, the elder of which is also on the pitch recovery team.
We are fundraising for Ian’s family, to ensure that their future is secure, as Ian would have wanted.
I’d like to raise as much as possible, but no donation is too small. And what I really want is for the page to be shared far and wide, so please help me!

Thank you so much. X

Terrible news. He sounds like a very selfless individual , so I'm sure his family will appreciate this kind gesture. As Midlands says there's a chance his family may be entitled to government. Let's hope so, people need all the help they can get at times like this.

Presumably/hopefully he was a member of the pension scheme, which pays life assurance benefits and a spouse's pension based on final salary. Any extra would, no doubt, be appreciated.
