A sad farewell to Adrian Ford

9th April 2024

On Wednesday 3rd April the Memory Cafe said a very sad goodbye to one of our longest serving volunteers Adrian Ford and his wife Trish who will soon be moving out of Devon.  Adrian was one of the founder members of the fundraising committee which was set up to raise money for an Admiral Nurse in Sidmouth.

During his time with the Memory Cafe Adrian was not only a hardworking volunteer but became a Trustee and for a period of time Chair of the Trustees.  The current Chairman, David Hodge, thanked Adrian for his hard work and commitment to the Memory Cafe over the years and wished him, Trish and their son Jason all the very best for the future.
