Rayner: Giving back to the charity that has given me and my family so much love and care
Brian Rayner (pictured below), who is dedicating lights in memory of his wife and daughter — both cared for by Mountbatten’s teams — shared,
“After my daughter, Nikki, and then my wife, Jan, died, I was in a very dark place. It was Mountbatten’s bereavement support that got me back on my feet and helped me feel less lonely.
“That’s why, this Christmas, I’m dedicating a light on Mountbatten’s remembrance tree to my Nikki and Janet, and donating to give back to the charity that has given me and my family so much love and care.”
Every donation helps
Every donation helps Mountbatten provide expert care and support to more than 2,300 people across the Island on any one day.
