Dedicated to the memory of Vera Middleton

On 25th October 2019 we lost our mum Vera to Cancer. Mum Always loved children. She had 4 daughters of her own and then became a foster carer, caring for over 30 children in 15 years. I will always remember how her face would light up whenever we'd have birthday or christmas parties that she'd thrown for us. Nothing made her happier than to see us happy. As we were growing up, Fostering gave mum the opportunity to share the love she had given us with other children. She wanted to provide them with a safe and warm family environment for as long as they were with us. And She did an amazing job. ;In Memory of our mum, we wanted to set up a fund that would be close to her heart. We thought that a charity supporting children would be perfect as she dedicated her life to them.

Mum was loving, kind and supportive. She never put herself first. She was full of energy, the life of the party and the last one on the dance floor.  Aside from her family, mum's passion was gardening. Any spare time she had was dedicated to looking after her garden. She loved her flowers.
