It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of our friend and colleague Amanda Sullivan who, shortly after completing 20 years of service with Wise Investment and Evenlode, passed away on 7 February following several months of treatment for cancer.

Amanda was an incredibly loyal and dedicated member of both the Wise and Evenlode teams over the years and was a great pleasure to work with. She is greatly missed by her colleagues, friends and family, particularly her daughter Kate, her sister Kirsty and her parents Pam and Geoff.

In her last few weeks Amanda and her family were diligently cared for by Katharine House Hospice in Banbury, but they need to raise £14,500 a day (£5.3m a year) to fund it. Members of the Wise Investment and Evenlode teams will be undertaking a memorial walk on 20 June to raise funds to help the hospice continue to provide ongoing care for the patients and their families. Any donations will be very much appreciated. Thank you.
