The Paul McCann Fund For Needy Children

Who are we, and why are we doing this?

On 21 March 2007, Paul lost his life in an accident onboard the submarine HMS Tireless during manoeuvres. Paul was 32 years old. Hundreds mourned his passing at Halesowen Church on Thursday 5th April 2007.

The fund has been set up by family and friends to provide support and aid to Needy Children within the UK. If one child is given the opportunity to be removed from despair and enjoy a life filled with happiness and love, then our (The friends and family of Paul) work will have been worth it.

Paul McCann - An online tribute to our Son, Brother, Partner, Uncle & Friend.

ALL proceeds from our fundraising activities will go to needy children charities.
