Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit this page, which is in memory Ettie Watson, who died on the 21st November 2024 at the ripe old age of 102 years and 7 months.

As Ettie's eyesight deteriorated she greatly appreciated the support she received from Newcastle Vision Support, which helped her maintain her independence. She thoroughly enjoyed attending their weekly chair yoga sessions and making new friends in the process.
