Just under £400 shy of the revised target which in such a short time frame is amazing, one last push to get it over the line for Ben.........1

Obviously the money will be the primary target to look at on the just giving site but that so many ‘supporters’ (JG terminology and the number of people donating will be higher) have stepped up and are rallying around and pitching in with £5, £10, £20 or more is really heartening to see. It’s not just a uniquely Charlton thing, or a CL thing because there are plenty of examples elsewhere but it’s still great to so regularly see that players, fans and posters of this club and site will and do rally around and pitch in so readilyRob7Lee said:Just under £400 shy of the revised target which in such a short time frame is amazing, one last push to get it over the line for Ben.........5 -
Target hit - good news!7

A fine effort to support a fellow Addicks family.
I know supporters of other clubs make similar efforts but Charlton fans step up time after time and it's great to see that re-connection between the club, players and supporters which was severely tested under previous ownership regimes.4 -

Lovely to see that smile in the face of such adversity. What a lad.
Keep on keeping on.7 -
The video of Ben at the training ground is now being shown on Charlton TV, so maybe the justgiving page will get another bump.

Great stuff, everyone, but keep spreading the word, please.7 -
Bumping Fanny's post with the just giving linkI trust that you will have watched the tear jerking video made at SL recently and which is now on the OS. This is where we hoped to display the link to the fund raising site but everything comes to he/she who waits....and the link you've been waiting for is now here.
Please click on: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/ben-jay to read those poignant words which encapsulate Ben's story & the ongoing fight that he & his family face on a daily basis.
Please urge your Addickted friends, family, those who are seated close by at home games to take a look at the site too and I warrant they will find it difficult to turn away....
ALL donations, however small, will help to make the lives of this dear Charlton family a little less difficult - this is the least we can do as I'm sure you'll agree.
And keep them, especially our brave Ben, in your thoughts and in your hearts.
Thank you x3 -
There's been some confusion about why this thread is no longer a "sticky". As this is a support thread for Ben and his family, we'd like to keep the focus on them here, so if you have any questions about the thread status, please take them over to the Sticky threads thread.Back on topic, the latest update on the Just Giving collection is it's now gone over the £8175 mark.3

Time for an update on the wonderful support you are giving to "our" Ben.
After speaking with Garry & Sharon to identify further experiences that Ben would enjoy, the family is now booked into a very special hotel for a 2 day break which will take place very soon.
It's no ordinary hotel though, but one with a twist....
Ben is very excited at the prospect of the trip but is unaware of a few additional, but amazing surprises which the family know he will love.
Garry has promised to post some photos on here so please keep your eyes peeled.
This well earned break is another opportunity for the family to make special memories & is all down to YOU, lovely Lifers.
YOU started the ball rolling before the Just Giving page was up & running, and you stepped up to the plate as we knew you would.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
