Help Support Simons family in celebrating his life

On 3rd July 2025, we sadly lost a much loved colleague at Newham ambulance station. Simon Gore has dedicated over 15 years of his life to serving the community and saving lives in North east London and passed away suddenly at only 54 years old while on his way home from work.

Simon was known for his razor-sharp sense of humour and infectious energy, someone who could light up any room. His presence left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of working alongside him, and his absence will be deeply felt. He was also a highly competent member of frontline ambulance staff who provided top quality care to all patients he encountered.

Simon leaves behind two daughters, and we would like to offer our support to them during this incredibly difficult time. As we come to terms with this heart breaking loss, we hope to honour Simon’s memory by raising funds to help celebrate his life and support his family in the weeks and months ahead.

This fundraiser is a way for all of us, to show our appreciation for the remarkable person Simon was, and to give back some of the kindness, humour, and care he so freely gave to others.
