Remembering Nick


New plaque


Remembrance Garden


Yesterday we dedicated a new plaque in memory of my brother Nick in the Garden of Rembrance at Aston Parish Church. Nick's good friend Andi Thomas had fixed the plaque in place and the Vicar of Aston, Andy Jolley, led friends and family in prayer and thanksgiving for Nick's life. The new plaque replaced the original that had been in place since Nick's death.

'Faith in Action' was the original name of Rejuvenate Worldwide, now led by Andi Thomas, the charity that was formed following the expedition which Nick organised to climb Mount Elgon in Uganda with young people from the Aston Community Youth Project and which established links between young people in Birmingham and Salem in Uganda. Earlier this year Andi led the latest expedition in which a team of young people from Aston and inner city Birmingham spent 17 days in Uganda working on various projects with local people and visiting schools and community projects.
