    Iʼve raised £6,010 to help fund our beautiful Mum's Funeral and Headstone

    Story

    Our beautiful, beloved Mum, Elaine, tragically passed away very suddenly on Mother’s Day, Sunday 14th March 2021 at the cruelly young age of 59.

    Due to the unexpected nature of her passing, unfortunately no insurance policies or Funeral plans were in place, and we have since found out that our Dad, Richard, is not eligible for help towards costs from the Government. As you can imagine, this is an absolutely devastating time for our family and the least we want to do is to be able to give our fantastic Mum, Wife & Nan the proper farewell that she deserves.

    Therefore, we have set up this JustGiving page to ask our family and friends if, instead of sending cards/flowers, that you please consider donating any small amount you possibly can, in order to help towards costs such as Headstone & Funeral services.

    We are so thankful for the thoughtful messages of sympathy received so far, and cannot even begin to express our gratitude and appreciation if you can support us with this cause, no matter how small, anything will be a huge help. Please rest assured that any donations marked anonymous are kept in the strictest of confidence, even from the recipient if you choose. Everyone’s financial circumstances are different, and we are aware that it is a very difficult time for many. So please, please understand that there is no expectation on anyone to donate, and no one should feel in anyway obligated. If all you have to give are your thoughts, prayers, love and appreciation for our wonderful Mum, then that is equally appreciated.

    Due to lockdown, unfortunately there are limited numbers able to attend our Mum’s service, and we know it will be difficult for family who live further afield as they cannot travel. Therefore, we will arrange for a video link so anyone who would like to attend the ceremony can do so remotely, and we will ensure the link is shared to this page along with the date and time.

    Thank you for reading and take care.

    Lots of love,

    Louise & Sarah

      We are officially mind blown. There are not enough words in the English language to describe our gratitude. Thank you. We cannot believe the kindness and generosity of not only family, friends & colleagues but strangers who've helped us go way above our target! We visited Mum yesterday and told her about how amazing everyone has been. We are leaving this page open for a little while longer, purely because we have friends who've said they would like to donate but are waiting for pay day. Thank you all so much again, Richard, Louise & Sarah xx

      Wow! What can we say? Sarah, Dad and I have been absolutely overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity shown from all the donations received. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. No words will ever express how grateful we are, and Mum would be extremely humbled too. We have now had the full cost breakdown for the funeral and therefore have increased the target. Obviously we're not expecting more from those who've been so generous already, however, wanted to update before we share the page again. Thank you again for the support so far. Lou x
