“When I heard about this fantastic project I wanted to put my full support behind it. I’ll be proud to do anything I can to help move this forward. I’m a mother of three children who have all, tragically, had to face the loss of friends in their youth. I know that at times like this, the friends and family most affected seek an outlet for their grief. We have all seen the carefully tended roadside memorials that so often symbolise the tragic loss of such young life. This memorial garden will be a valuable contribution from the community to the young people of Thame and I hope that the work being done here will lead to the emergence of similar excellent projects throughout Oxfordshire and the wider region. I was proud to stand alongside the Thame community on January 3rd for the dedication of the garden.”
