We at the Guardians Guild want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who attended our meet up last night in loving memory of our eternally-missed VP Jim.
Jim’s son Archie, and youngest Guild member, gave a moving tribute to his dad and also passed on his heartfelt thanks to everyone who came.
It was an emotional rollercoaster of an evening, with everyone sharing their own stories of a man who dedicated his life to being there for other people. Not only did he spend 20 years of his life serving the community as a job, but also offered up his free time to found and support the Guild in championing men’s mental health.
Jim could never be replaced. He was one of life’s true good people and a rare gem. He will always be missed.
I would personally like to shout out to our partners who came together to support us at this tough time. A massive thank you to Ginnie at the Wall Heath Tavern and Jak at the Rajput for hosting us. A heartfelt thank you to the guys and gals at AWW for their ongoing love and support, and another big thank you to the lovely folks at SS Tattoos for always being there for us. We’re looking forward to working with them to immortalise Jim’s memory in ink.
Finally, as always, thanks to our members and everyone who rocked up last night. Big, big love all around!
