Fundraiser for late Luton charity chief
So it was only right and fitting that when friends and family gathered to celebrate his life, they should do so on a walk over his beloved Warden Hills.
A collection raised £300 to add to the trust fund created in his memory by the charity. It now stands at more than £5,000 and the money will be used for projects tackling the lack of opportunities for women in the local area, an initiative Mark started before being diagnosed with a brain tumour.
