Phil Thompson a local gardener for over 20yrs, advertising his service in Newton News, had his garage broken into and all the tools he uses to earn a living have been stolen.

Because he has gone so long without any problems he didn’t feel the need to get insurance on his garage, so he has lost everything and has no money to buy new.

Phil is devastated and unable to earn a living so he is asking readers if they could help him with any unwanted tools they could donate. Please contact him on 01325 788508 or paul on 19751995@hotmail.co.uk
