RIP Chris Baldwin - Worthing Coffeeshops


forwinston

Recommended Posts

I haven't been on these forums for quite a while, and I realised there would be a few people here that would have known Chris Baldwin, who opened two coffeeshops in Worthing from 2002-2004, Chris served 3 months in prison eventually for his blatant disregard for the laws of the land.

It is with much sadness that I report Chris died last month after a short illness, it came as a shock to many. Chris was just 66 years old, but he left the world a better place than he found it.

His funeral was attended by several hundred people, family, friends and campaigners.

I feel honoured that I met Chris and became his friend, he was courageous, honest and kind. I will miss him!

I remember him and being excited by his outspoken beliefs and actions- as a student it was amazing to see adults taking a stand for cannabis in public. RIP.

When I posted this, the news that Howard marks had passed away hadn't been published.... Howard and Chris had met many times, I would like to think they will be up there together in the great big coffeeshop! xx
