At Willow they believe in quality of life and quality of time. Willow is the only national charity working with seriously ill young adults aged 16 to 40 to fulfil uplifting and unforgettable Special Days. This year they hope to fulfil 1,400 Special Days – a day to anticipate, to share and to remember when happy memories really do count. Sadly for some, it’s a last chance to fulfil a dream with the people that really matter. Thankfully for many more their Special Day is an important opportunity to put much-needed normality back into living.

Founded by former Arsenal goalkeeper and TV presenter, Bob Wilson and his wife Megs,
Willow is a lasting memorial to their daughter, Anna, who died of cancer aged 31. Anna’s love of life and the enriching experiences of her own special days were the charity’s inspiration.

The charity helped one of our colleague and his  family during the final period of  life.

Some of you will have heard of, and may have attended, the LeeStock Music Festival,
which is held annually in Long Melford in memory of Lee Dunford, who died in 2006.  The festival exclusively raises money for the Willow Foundation, who helped Lee before he died.  The festival was not able to run in 2020 and the charity’s fundraising efforts have taken a big hit during this year. We're hoping that our support will go someway to helping the charity at this difficult time. 

Many thanks for your support and donation....
