Raising funds to help with Brett’s funeral costs and support his beautiful daughters, Poppy and Neve, through the difficult road ahead.

Christchurch, Canterbury

We’ve set up this page to help support Brett’s family after the heartbreaking and unexpected loss of a truly great man.

Brett leaves behind his two beautiful daughters, Poppy and Neve, who meant absolutely everything to him.

Any money raised will go towards helping with funeral costs and, most importantly, supporting Poppy and Neve through the incredibly difficult road ahead.

Anything you can give, big or small, will mean more than we can put into words.

Rest easy, Brett. We’ll make sure your girls know just how loved their dad was. ❤️

We are Bretts rugby team, raising funds to cover funeral costs and any additional money to go to his daughters

Use of funds

Funds raised will go towards Brett’s funeral costs, with any remaining funds going into a trust (currently being set up) for his daughters, Poppy and Neve, to help support them moving forward.
