I only just found out about Master Brian Towndrow's passing less than two weeks ago and I'm gutted. Although I haven't seen Brian for over a decade now, I was at some point hoping to see him again. He was a top and knowledgeable man with a amazing presence. Thank you for everything Master Brian Towndrow, it was an honor to train under your guidance. R.I.P.

Whilst there are many TKD memories, what I will miss is chasing each other around the Derbyshire countryside to grading, All the giggles, all the smiles we had, meals out and you “sitting in the brave chair “ after a few sherbets. I will hold these memories close and think of you often. Safe journey, see you on the other side sweetpea, much luv x

Brian was a true gentleman and mentor to us and we enjoyed the training and friendships of so many people at the Tae Kwon Do clubs over the years we trained under him. Our condolences go out to Katrina, family and friends for the sad loss of Brian.

My condolences for GM Towndrow's family. He was also so kind when I interacted with him during gradings at my club or during regional training sessions. He will be greatly missed throughout the TAGB community
