FYP Irish themed surprise leaving party at Braddyls

Richard Farmer, or ‘Ritchie’ as he is known among FYP, has been the longest standing member of FYP and also the most committed. Not only has Ritchie brought gusto to every event he has also been a fantastic supporter in getting more young people on board. Many will remember Ritchie for the part he played in setting off the fireworks at last year’s bonfire event, not least when one backfired, literally. Then there was the visit from Tori James, who Ritchie seemed to take quite a liking to…

Ritchie will be missed by everyone who met him through FYP, remembered as the Irish fellow who was always up for a good laugh and nearly impossible to understand after a few pints! We hope he’ll continue to join some of our events from his new base in Manchester and look forward to visiting him there for a few FYP outings.

To Ritchie, slàinte!
