Dear Fremantle Market’s Community.

Among the vibrant stalls holders of the Fremantle Markets is a beautiful soul who has touched many with her kindness and strength.

Recently, she endured the devastating loss of her beloved husband to cancer. Now, as a young mother caring for her baby, she faces this overwhelming journey without access to Centrelink or government support services.

This is our moment, as a community, to stand beside her.

She’s not just a stallholder — she’s a cherished part of our community, loved by so many who have had the privilege of working alongside her at the markets.

We’re raising funds to help ease the financial burden — to provide essentials, stability, and a little breathing space for her and her baby as they navigate life after loss. Every contribution, big or small, will make a real impact.

Let’s show her she’s not alone Fremantle, let’s come together and lift up one of our own with love and support.

Thank you kindly for your support,

Katie Smout and the Fremantle Markets Stallholders.
