20 years of making a difference – June: Rob and Jasper’s story
As part of its 20th anniversary celebrations, Balloons is sharing the stories behind its beginnings. This month, Rob Pudner, and his 10-year-old son Jasper, tell their story of how they turned to Balloons after the loss of Jasper’s brother Tobias.
This was a poignant full-circle moment for Rob – a well-known Devon entertainer, who supported Balloons in its early days, performing at family events we held for bereaved families.
