Although Helen was taken too soon, her personality was too bright to be dimmed. Please leave your memories of her here as we raise money for her two favourite charities.
We would like to raise a roughly equal amount for each charity, so if you aren't sure which one you want to support, please pick which ever one is a little behind!
Helen recently became an Advanced First Aider while working with the St John Ambulance family. She volunteered for them at events such as the V festival, and on a regular basis at Essex University. She was passionate about it and loved being able to jump in and help people when they needed it. She also loved her uniform, the ambulances, and the associated staff discount card!
Helen also loved Love in Action very much, and travelled to Uganda numerous times to see her massive extended family there. Helen sponsored a number of children and workers of Love in Action over the last 12 years, and would proudly talk about the work. You only needed to look around Helen's living room at all the 'African Tat' (as she called it) to know how much Helen loved Uganda.
