As a lot of club members know now, Ash Moore was involved in a serious road traffic collision on Thursday the 8th May 2025 and suffered a number of serious injuries that left him literally fighting for his life. Ash has been in hospital since and is still very poorly. He has Yvonne with him, son Adam has been in England and daughter Amy has been with him too. As we are sure you will all understand, Yvonne doesn’t have time to update everyone, but is very appreciative of all your love and support. We will continue to update you in due course.
