The Wrexham owners have had an incredible impact on the town altogether even contributing to its economy. Not long ago, a Wrexham local narrated a heartwarming tale about the Hollywood duo. Stephen Tapp, who owns Wrexham’s Trainer Revival store, previously suffered a terrible tragedy with his business. Apparently, a bunch of thieves broke into the shop, getting away with £7,000 worth of stock. To stop the business from closure, Tapp started a fundraiser targeting £3,500 donation. Interestingly, Tapp noticed how a pledge from Rob and Ryan appeared on his fundraiser page.
Shortly after, the owner realized that the money was from the Hollywood A-listers. As impressive as it may sound, Tapp ended up raising over £8,000 to save his business. The businessman was in tears after the wholesome gesture from Wrexham’s co-owners. He took to Twitter to express his gratitude to the two as he wrote, “literally saved my business and I’ll be forever grateful. ” Tapp could not hold his feelings back as he concluded, “If you only knew what that donation has meant to my life.”
While this gesture from the Hollywood duo is undoubtedly heartwarming, it is not uncommon.
