Andy “Mouse” Hey was an athlete, a QPR supporter, a John Lennon believer, and someone whose passions ran wide and ran deep. This bench holds all of it. Carved from solid oak and painted by hand, it carries his wheelchair sport silhouette, the logos of the teams and artists he loved, a quote that was his — “Imagine all the people, living life in peace” — and the names of his family, carved into the wood that will carry them for as long as the bench stands.
Nothing on this bench was generic. Every element was asked about, designed around, revised and refined. The QPR badge. The BTS logo. The carved detail on the armrests. The exact wording of the inscription. When a family gives you that level of trust, the only right response is to get every detail right — and then give it back to them as something permanent.
Andy’s bench is one of the fullest examples of what bespoke means in our workshop. If the person you’re remembering had passions that don’t fit neatly into a standard memorial, that’s exactly what we’re here for. Tell us what mattered to them. We’ll carve it. Made from solid oak, finished with three coats of Epifanes matt varnish for lasting outdoor life. Prices include VAT. Get in touch to begin.
