Donations & Tributes

Sage House is a wonderful local community hub located in Tangmere, West Sussex. Over the last 4 years, Jo and Kate have taken Jeanette and Chris to a weekly singing group which we all got a huge amount of joy from. The staff at Sage House are extremely kind, warm and welcoming and we would like to recognise the value that they added to the whole family by this wonderful activity. Watching Mum and Dad sing love songs to each other whilst holding hands, is a memory we will both treasure forever.

Petworth Community Garden was set up by Kate in 2005 inspired by a Garden Organic project, ‘Organic Food for All’. The idea was to offer an opportunity for local people with limited means (financial, health, space etc.) to be able to learn to grow fresh free organic fruit and vegetables, and to take home a free share of the harvest. 20 year later, the Garden is thriving and has grown into a registered charity offering social and therapeutic horticulture for individuals experiencing economic hardship, social isolation, disability, physical and mental ill health and social disadvantage. Their beautiful wheelchair-accessible garden is home to inclusive, friendly, and non-judgmental groups for people of all ages and abilities. For more information, please visit their website. https://communitywellbeinggarden.org/ Mum and Dad were both very supportive of this work and incredibly proud of Kate for bringing together their great passions – gardening, healthy cooking and accessibility to all.
