Mike was also involved with local Radio in Uckfield

Mike Skinner, a valued and heartfelt member of the community suddenly passed away a year ago

In memory of Mike's passing a year ago, AFC Uckfield Town are holding a day of events, on 7th October, including a coffee morning, football match versus Loxwood, a BBQ, singer and Karaoke at the Oaks.

It starts at 1030am and runs until late in the evening and all proceeds go to Mike's charities.
