Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. Our request is not to be sent flowers but if you would like to contribute to this incredible charity in memory of mum, we would be grateful for any donation. 

Without Shipston Home Nursing we wouldn't have been able to give mum her last wish which was to be back at beautiful Meadow Cottage, surrounded by the countryside and sheep in nothing but peace and tranquility. For us it meant our times with Mum were there to support Jeff and give mum really special moments where we were able to talk to her about the grandchildren, share the stories all her friends sent me and tell her all the things we wanted to. We were able to do this without having to worry about every whim of her medical needs. 

Mum is such an inspiration to us all, everyone she met was touched by her kind nature and generous spirit. She is going to be missed by so many people and we know she would join us to thank you for being such amazing support to her throughout her time with us. 

Gemma and I will be also running a 10K race in memory of mum in May, just a few days before her birthday - if you would like to come along (or even join in!) click on the link below: 

10k Run/Walk at Walton Hall - NEW DATE SUNDAY MAY 8TH 2022 - Shipston Home Nursing

Much love

Mel and Gem xx
