As you all know we lost this amazing lady after a battle with the cruelest virus.  She was an amazing wife, mum and nanny and always remained positive, strong and was there for others despite her own health difficulties.

In her memory rather than flowers we would like to invite you to make a donation to 2 charities. We have decided to split any funds raised between two charities close to both Vanessa's and her families hearts.

Ehlers Danlos Support UK, Mum herself suffered from EDS and was keen to raise awareness of it and how it affects people. She struggled greatly because of this dibilitating condition, but never let it get in the way of her zest for life. 

The second charity is Charcot Marie Tooth UK. CMT is a disease that affects one of Vanessa's grandchildren and has greatly affected him physically. 

We have set this page up to enable us to split any funds raised equally between both of these charities. 

We thank you in advance for any donations you feel you are able to make. 

Patrick, Kim and Mike
