Ellen passed away peacefully early in the morning of 21st December 2018, after being looked after by family at home in Gloucestershire. She was a very special woman, having fostered over 100 children, whilst suffering from rheumatoid arthritis from the age of 16, and tackling several bouts of cancer.

Steve, your Mum sounded like an incredible woman, 100 foster children is quite remarkable. She must have been full to the brim with love. My Grandmother also suffered with Rheumatoid arthritis so we're keen to donate to this cause with you all. Sending love xxx
She sounds like a wonderful woman with an enormous and enduring legacy.
