We are very sad to announce that our friend and Group Chair, Ellen Foran, passed away at the end of September.
Ellen was a tireless campaigner for mental health.
Despite ill health and significant caring responsibilities, she always found the time and energy to shape and support local campaigns. She was admired by the group for her strong sense of integrity and courage when dealing with situations that she felt need to be changed, and in taking a stand against practices that she feels to be unjust. All those who knew her will remember that she was not one to give up easily!
As well as her huge efforts in campaigning locally, Ellen was also very supportive of individuals in our group. Despite her own personal situation she was always happy to talk and to offer a friendly ear and emotional support. We have very lucky to have known Ellen and all her energy and enthusiasm.
She will be missed very much and our thoughts go out to her family and friends at this sad time.
