Sophie and Jacob recently lost their mum, Wendy, after a long battle with cancer.
The Baker family have always been big supporters of the Ripley Panto. Both Sophie and her younger brother Jacob have been in shows from little children. Pat, their nan, can often be seen front of house and Wendy herself has helped behind the scenes with the children in the shows.
Cast and crew members have been in contact to ask how they can help and after speaking with the family, we have set up this page for Sophie and Jacob - to create a 'rainy day fund' so hopefully in the future, they can create some new and happy memories. They have given their time and energy to support the Panto, so please let's show our appreciation and support them when they need it the most.
