A message from Debbie, Brian's daughter:

"Please could you pass on my thanks to everyone who attended Dad's funeral and/or wake on Friday. The collection on the day came to £203.70, which I have now added to online collection. It was so kind of people to take the time out to pay their respects, and very much appreciated by us, as family. Kind regards, Debbie."

Thank you so much for all your kind thoughts and wishes. The funeral will be on 23rd January, 10am at St Michael's Church (seafront), and there will be a wake later if anyone wants to join us to celebrate Dad's life. Please can you let me know who is attending for catering purposes including any athletes who want to attend? My email is [email protected], and telephone number is 07811 182023 - just text as I never answer unknown numbers 😃

A message from David Phillips, our Chairman.

It is my sad duty to inform you that Brian, our chief coach, passed away on Sunday evening. Although he was unwell and receiving treatment, it was unexpected. Only last Thursday he was at the club, monitoring his huge training group, looking very cosy in his Christmas pudding bobble hat, after sorting the juniors into their groups.

He was with the club for many years and still ran regularly. A very experienced coach willing to encourage, support and help anyone. The way he carried on cheerfully in spite of his illness was an inspiration to us all.

In due course his family will let us know of funeral plans.

Our thoughts are very much with his beloved family, of whom he was very proud.
