Default Donations For Bill Torrens

Hello All,
I received this letter from Barbara Torrens' concerning her wishes about donations to be given in Bill's memory. I have been in touch with all the other forums he participated on but Tom's. If someone wishes to let them know, that is fine.

Below is her letter, I hope it is helpful. THEA

Hello Thea,

This is the charity I have nominated for any donations in Bill's memory:-

www.beatingbowelcancer.org

And this is the email their finance chap sent me about making donations:-

"......There are various ways in which to donate to our charity. One of the best ways to be able to coordinate all donations in this circumstance is to donate online through the website www.justgiving.com/bowelcancermemory which is a secure site we have set up whereby donors can make donations in memory of loved ones etc and include a message, and we then record all donations in a special memorium book we keep at the charity. Or you could even set up your own memory page.
Our main website, www.beatingbowelcancer.org lists all the various ways (under ‘how to help’-donate) in which donations can be made securely including the above, or for simplicity we can take credit card donations over the phone (not Amex)".
I hope this is useful. I haven't made a donation myself yet but I will be shortly.I hope you are all ok.
Love Barbara
