With the heaviest hearts, Simon, Sue, Max and Joe share the devastating news that our beloved Matilda, aged just 17, has passed away. Matilda was kind, funny, fiercely loved and had so much more to give. Our lives will never be the same without her.

In honour of her memory, and instead of buying flowers for her service, we ask that you consider donating to two causes very close to us. Whilst we have not yet decided which charities to carefully select, we know donations will be spread across the following:

A suicide prevention charity for young people / a charity which provides support for the family facing a loss by suicide.

Matilda loved many things, but one of her biggest passions was football, a place where she found a big community of friends and fun. Donations will also go towards a football charity to help other young people find the same joy in the game that Matilda did.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
