Story

💚TEAM AMANDA RYAN 💚

This year, we’re coming together as Team Amanda Ryan to take part in the Starlight Hike, walking under the stars in memory of our beautiful Amanda Jane Ryan, who passed away peacefully on 17th June 2026.

Amanda spent her final days in the care of Sue Ryder St John’s Hospice in Moggerhanger, and the love, kindness, dignity and compassion they showed Amanda, and all of us around her, was truly incredible. They supported us through some of the hardest days imaginable and made sure Amanda was cared for with such warmth and respect.

This is a cause that means so much to all of us, and we would be incredibly grateful for any donation, big or small. Every penny will help support the amazing work of the hospice and the families who need them.

Amanda lived her life to the fullest, there was never a dull moment. She could be wonderfully silly, incredibly cheeky and always danced as if no-one was watching. She was simply one of a kind.

Behind all the laughter was an incredibly caring, loving and kind-hearted person. Amanda loved her family and friends deeply she brought warmth, fun and happiness into the lives of so many people.

We all have our own favourite Amanda stories, the moments that still make us laugh, the things she said that we will never forget, and the memories that make us smile even when our hearts hurt and although we would give anything to have more time with her, we feel incredibly lucky to have known and loved someone as special as Amanda.

Deeply missed and loved, Amanda will forever have a special place in all of our hearts.

Thank you so much for supporting us!
