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.

    The great company ‘QR-Stuff’ reinstated the QR code Lucy. Seems I chose the wrong type in the first place. Wouldn’t have happened if you were here to keep an eye on me of course.

    I think Lucy upcycled me! She brought out the best in everyone. Missing her and sending love to everyone else who is too, wishing this wasn’t so. Xxx

    Thinking of you today Luce with so much love and gratitude for your beautiful friendship, for your constant ability to spotlight the precious necessity of living life to the full, and of making memories that last.

    Every one of our shared memories replays in my heart often. I think of you each time I look up at the night sky too, and more recently with Donna Ashworth’s words in mind. Her poem “You” always makes me think of the map you left behind, your glitteringly beautiful network of stars ... one for every single person who loved you, every single person you were kind to, every person you made laugh, and every person you inspired along the way.

    What a stunning imprint you left in all our hearts, one that will never be forgotten. Every person who was lucky enough to love you, became a better person for having you in their life.

    Until we meet again, rest gently dear heart.xxx
