Story

On the 24 February 2022 we lost our friend Lee Clarke (Clarky) to cancer at the age of just 50. We promised him we would keep his memory alive and make sure he was never forgotten. He spent alot of time in the Amethyst Ward at Grimsby Hospital, and his wish was for the garden then to be made into a welcoming area for patients and their family/friends. In February 2022 his friends organised a fundraising day to raise money for Lee and he chose for it to be donated to the garden at the Amethyst ward, a year later to carry on Lee’s memory and also raise more money a group of his friends are planning to complete the National Three Peaks in 24 hours on the 12 May 2023. The group is a little diverse, from old school friends, to drinking buddies, work colleuges and his cycling friends. But all sharing a love for Lee and determination to make him proud and keep his memory alive! All donations, no matter how big or small will go to making the Amethyst garden a welcoming tranquil environment that patients can enjoy all year round.
