Filmed in Mottingham/Grove Park area (near the Dutch House Pub) in April, very moving story (aren't they all) with a Charlton connection.

For those who know me, you may see me and a few of my work team getting our hands dirty.

    I’ll keep em peeled mate. 

    But loads of my lot did one in Temple Hill a few years back. The edit ain’t kind. I think you saw one of their backs. 

    My firm did a Sarah Beeny one years back. They promised all sorts for some free work and delivered nothing.

    Absolute tragic story. Good to see people pull together and give a family a chance of some normality. 
  • That was very moving.

    Was at a 21st party a weekend back with the 2nd eldest boy featured in this. My mates son done some plastering with a variety of other kids  (tradesmen) on this episode. They are are really nice bunch of kids and tbh restored my faith in today’s youth

    Hats off to you and all involved.
    A lovely inspirational family.
    Promote deserved here please mods.
    Can I ask what your involvement was in the build and how long the whole thing took from start to finish?
    Thanks.
