hi everyone
 this isnt a plea for cash
as you all know now,my son louis passed away 3wks ago aged 10
me and jo have decided to concentrate on putting a charity together called SMILES 
to help other children with terminal illness ,basically what we have planned is to go around the childrens wards delivering toys and games to help the little ones get through treatments,
hopefully we will be able to expand and then buy a caravan to use as a rest-bite for other familys to use like the ones in wales........later on
any way as louis and myself love the scene i thought it would great to combine both interests  together using a T3 panel van  but having problems finding one 
does anyone know of one for sale?the charity pot has about £1800 to spend on a drivable one?
i have put a thread in the wanted section but thought everyone might see it here
any help or pointers please pm me as long as its not to far away (Scotland)
regards 
lance and jo 
thank you all for your previous help

There is a black one for sale in a layby at Watergate Bay, near Newquay. looks nice, but I'm a T5 driver and know sweet FA about T3s. I'm back over there later in the week so can get a number and maybe take a pic. Unless you think a black one might not be a suitable colour.
Poo IS funny.

cheers bud colour doesnt matter as what ever we use will have to be sprayed a eye catching colour as it will be out side the childrens wards of salisbury and southhampton hospitals  to start off

Fantastic idea!
 
Is there somewhere I can offer a donation towards the project? Can't offer much but a few quid here and there may push from acceptable to ideal?
 
Best of luck with the project either way,
