Re: Vale Les Twentyman
Sad news. Condolences to family & friends. The legacy of his tireless work will l Iive on & I would think inspire others to do good things.
His surname kinda echoes his larger than life reputation (presence and efforts).

Re: Vale Les Twentyman
RIP Les.
I’ve worked in community services/mental health and now education in the West since finishing uni years ago his legacy in the area is incredibly strong. Foundation often takes our students. Young Carers program I ran years ago, the young people benefited from their programs too. He’d have folk take the Mickey out of him occasionally but in a tough environment he was someone who has rolled their sleeves up in the hope of something better. Really admirable.
One of us, and one of a handful of folk who are emblematic of this club and how it’s identity is interwoven through the community with football but not only football.
