Five years ago our good friend Nathalie lost her brother John suddenly in a road accident; he was only 36 years old. John was a much loved son, partner, uncle and friend, and his loss will be felt forever.
The Quinn family set up the John Paul Clarke Foundation the year they lost John to honour his memory.
Since then many of us have raised money in his memory. The money raised, nearly £40, 000 to date, has gone towards a number of charities including Hackney Quest. The key focus has been to help young people fulfil their potential, often in the face of challenging or adverse situations.
This year on Saturday 7th September 2019 a team of John’s friends and family are planning to walk the Thames Path Bridge Challenge : 25 km crossing 16 bridges in London. John grew up, lived in and loved London, so it feels a fitting tribute.
Thank you for your contribution.
Eithne and Ben.
