Friends of a Welsh man who tragically died in Tenerife the day before his 30th birthday say they are determined to bring him back home to be laid to rest. Nicholas Desmond, known as Nicky, was from the Gabalfa area of Cardiff and had travelled to Tenerife the day before he died on July 29.
Now a fundraiser has been launched to raise money to bring Nicky home to Cardiff. A family friend said that Nicky had been in Tenerife for just "hours" before his death.
Sacha Pugsley, 29, described Nicky as "bubbly and outgoing" and as someone who was "always happy." Nicky, who was from Cardiff, grew up in the Gabalfa and Roath areas of the city.
