WaterAid Remembers

Patrick Darnes

WaterAid is a great cause that was close to my father’s heart. He was passionate that everyone should have access to clean and safe water.

Tom Tanner

Your favourite charity ... you always said everyone should have access to clean water. Your kind heart lives on . I love and miss you every day.

MR Edward Isaacs

Miss you so much my darling husband you are always in my thoughts my solemate

Patrick Darnes

Patrick was a Chemical Engineer and Technical Manager for a company making equipment for producing pure water. Water used in hospitals and distilleries etc. He supported WaterAid and was passionate about everyone having access to clean water and toilets. Sadly we lost him when he was 69

Janna Stalburg

Our friend Janna Stalburg who died last month at the age of 100 asked those at her funeral celebration to donate to Water Aid. Janna loved to travel and celebrate other cultures and particularly liked Bali. She wanted everyone to have access to clean water.

Family Late Zubaida Zaheer Sheikh

This is for ALLAH SAKE ONLY TO PLEASE OUR CREATOR INSHALLAH

Anu Sand

Anu travelled and worked throughout Africa in the 1970's. She saw firsthand the preciousness of water. Anu never took water for granted and she had great respect for WaterAid's mission that water is a basic human right. She died this year on September 2nd and specified in her Will that part of her money went to WaterAid.

Beverley Clancy

Remembering my mum who passed away in August this year. She donated regularly to Water Aid and I’m so pleased we were able to raise money in her memory. She was a very kind person who like helping where she could. She’s sadly missed, but I’m so happy that Water Aid’s work will continue to help other people - Just like she wanted. x

Anne Mulligan

I know Anne would approve of this dedication as she was kind hearted and generous in life. For people not to have access to clean water and privacy (especially young girls and pregnant ladies) is terrible. I am glad she made it possible for me to make this small donation on her behalf.

Baldev Raj Sethi (Papaji)

It's been 33 years since you left but you are still missed sooooo much. You have left such an empty space in all our lives. Love you forever Papaji.

Eric Gadd

Uncle Eric was a lovely man. I always valued his open mind. He (and Jean) were interested in everything and always liked to hear what you were doing in your life. Eric had a gentle presence and a warm chuckle. The last of his generation in our family, I am sad to know he has gone. Safe travels to the next adventure dear Uncle Eric.
