At our meeting in August w heard a moving and inspiring presentation from Stephen Lay, who has raised £102K in memory of his late wife Carol, for the Siblings Support FundChildren's Hospice South West. This money has funded six community support workers, and helped 450 siblings and 400 bereaved siblings.
