Emma was tragically killed by a falling tree on May 23rd 2011 aged just 18. Her family and friends felt the need to do something positive so we decided to create a permanent grant-making fund to help remember Emma.
The aim is to establish a permanent grant-making fund in Emma’s name to support young people in the Arts.
On this site you can read more about Emma’s fund, get involved with fund-raising, or if you just wish to make a donation now please click here.
Please take a few minutes to watch the videos, read about Emma and most importantly get involved. Our initial goal was to raise £25,000, which we have now achieved. The fund currently stands at almost £66,000 and we are aiming for £75,000 - so every penny counts.
The fund is managed by The Community Foundation serving Tyne & Wear and Northumberland registered charity number 700510
