Story

Around this time last year, William’s Goddaughter Jenny, just 28 years old, was diagnosed with the particularly aggressive glioblastoma brain tumour and has bravely fought both this tumour and the surgery to attempt its removal over the last 12 months.  A few weeks ago, she was offered a place at the Cottage Hospice, in Tonbridge, and moved in with her fiancé Dave.  This has given them both the opportunity to remain together whilst Jenny receives the palliative care and comfort she now requires. William, Sarah and Olly have all signed up for the organised 10K “Hospice 2022” run next Sunday, to raise funds for ‘The Hospice in the Weald’ group of charities.  We do realise that this is only a small gesture towards supporting Jenny, Dave and their families but every donation helps.

Sadly, Jenny passed away on Monday 12th September . We will always remember her in our hearts.
