<p></p><p>It is with great sadness that we inform you that Jayesh Thakker<br/>has left for his heavenly abode on 24th June 2022.</p><p>His strength, guidance, leadership and helpful nature has<br/>been a great support to various members of the community and beyond. His jovial<br/>nature and ever smiling, helping, easily approachable personality were some of<br/>his greatest qualities. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends and all<br/>those that knew him.<span>  </span></p><p>Thank you all for the kind support to our family during this<br/>difficult time. </p><p>Jayesh had a big heart and supported many charities and<br/>community projects worldwide. Some examples include feeding the needy locally,<br/>to building Schools and Eye Camps in Kenya.</p><p>Many have asked if they could donate to a charity. We have<br/>chosen the Christie, specifically the Lymphoma team, as Jayesh suffered from Blastoid<br/>Mantle Cell Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and was treated and supported by the<br/>incredible staff there.</p><p><span style="color: #262626;">The Lymphoma team at The Christie has an international reputation<br/>in clinical trials research to develop novel treatments for Lymphoma patients,<br/>both to improve cure rates and to prolong good quality life in individuals<br/>whose disease is resistant to conventional treatments. The team has a large<br/>portfolio of clinical trials and generous donations have allowed them to invest<br/>in this research which has led to the development of new therapies and<br/>innovative ways to treat Lymphoma. Ultimately, the research undertaken at The<br/>Christie will be disseminated widely for the benefit of Lymphoma patients the<br/>world over. By helping them fund posts and research like this, you can help<br/>make these latest treatment methods a reality. And therefore, help to improve<br/>patient outcomes and care.</span></p><p></p>
