Following the tragic news earlier this week that VetNurse member Carolyn Laithwaite's husband Brian and fellow sky-diver Emma Bramley were killed in a skydiving accident, a fundraising page has been set up in their name on JustGiving, with the proceeds going towards the Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire Air Ambulance.
As many of you will know, Carolyn has been a member of VetNurse.co.uk since it was set up almost a decade ago. At times a controversial figure, she has also been enormously supportive, kind and helpful to a great many VetNurse members over the past ten years. So, I'd like to ask anyone who has benefitted from her help over the years to go and pop a few quid in the kitty.
Actually, I'd like to encourage ALL VetNurse members to go and support this worthy cause. We don't charge you a membership / subscription fee for membership of this site, and it is what it is because of people like Carolyn. So whether you feel like showing your support for her, or the Air Ambulance, or vetnurse.co.uk, please visit http://www.justgiving.com/L8Arrivals now and donate.
In addition, if you'd like to leave a message of support for Carolyn, you can do so here.

Indeed, this is a very thoughful post by Arlo. I agree with everything said and I also urge every single member of vetnurse to contribute what you can, no matter how little, it all adds up. Any support we can give Caro at this time will be invaluable to her and I will be keeping in touch with Caro and doing my best to help her through this terrible time.
