In memory of Lucy-Jane Tammadge

The Tammadge Family & friends launched the Lucy-Jane Tammadge Appeal in support of the charity Breakthrough Breast Cancer in the determination that the pain we have now will one day not be inflicted on others.

Our beloved Lucy was sadly taken from us at the age of 37 after a hard-fought battle against breast cancer. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her for her courageous spirit, determination, wicked sense of humour & always smiling face.

In memory of Lucy, we would like to raise money for Breakthrough Breast Cancer to support them in their work to stop breast cancer for good by improving early diagnosis, developing new treatments and preventing all types of breast cancer.

The appeal was first founded in July 2015 using a crowd funding platform that closed in November 2021. During that period there were donations of £48,588.67. The comments donors made can be scrolled in the message below of 21st November 2021. In addition Lucy’s work colleague and friend Mellisa Beeko raised £1,126.25 in a sponsored run at the London Olympic Stadium. That was 225% of target. Go, Go Beeko! We shouted.

Thanks also to Tracy Higgs, a ‘very special person’ who helped Lucy’s family and helped raise some of the donations.

Walking the dog with my husband, chatting and making plans for our retirement adventures. We came across your bench and the QR code- what a lovely idea.

Having a lovely walk along the beach with my own thoughts feeling down after a long relationship break up… I sat in the sun looking at the waves thinking I’m very lucky to be healthy and alive… I’m sure Lucy James family would do anything for her to around.. god bless

We wish you were here for a birthday hug Lucy-Jane. Wonder why it hurts even more on the anniversary of the day you came to us and the dreadful day you left. We will sit on your bench on the beach tomorrow and think of some of the good times. Goodnight sweetheart. X

I found this whilst taking on the challenge of walking round the coast of England in memory of my mother and to raise funds for the MND association. Finding this bench was totally inspiring and kept me walking for at least another day! Thank you for sharing.
