A fundraising page established to offer some financial support for service technician Martin Coates' partner and two young boys following his fatal accident, has leapt past its initial target.

The Just Giving page set up Brian Robinson Machinery Ltd's operations and marketing manager, Hannah Robinson, had as its aim to raise £1000 in Martin's memory.

At the time of writing, on the morning of Friday 10th November 2023, the total stood at more than £7,900.
