Couple's £33k life savings stolen from home during floods
- 7 months ago
A grandad has been left 'devastated' after £33,000 in cash he'd been saving for his late son's headstone was stolen from his motorhome during floods.
Phil and Dawn Henderson hid three bags of money and jewellery under a bed in their motorhome as rising water from Storm Babet threatened their property.
The married couple had been putting cash aside to buy a gravestone for their son Jay Henderson, 36, who sadly died last year from liver failure.
And when their frequently flooded bungalow, in Mexborough, South Yorks., looked set to be hit again on October 19, they moved their valuables to their mobile camper.
