The Commemoration Details
The commemoration of Bernice's life will take place at The Old Moothouse Bistro in Castle Hedingham from 1.30pm on the 18th January.
The Keep at Castle Hedingham, is a place we visited often. It's a beautiful village, which appealed to Mum and it is one of many perfect locations to commemorate Bernice.
Every one is welcome, and their doors will be open to us from 1.30pm We will raise a glass and toast Mum with champagne and hopefully some decent nibbles. I am assured the food is good and will be plentiful. Fingers crossed! We've tried hard to not get this bit wrong ;-)
No RSVP is required. Everyone is welcome. However, we would really appreciate it, if you could let us know if you intend to come so we can get an idea of numbers beforehand by emailing henry@lewington.im .
Parking is on the street, however, we understand it is not a problem and that there is a sign-posted public car park close by.

Mum did not want us to feel obliged to wear traditional funeral attire. 'Unconformist', is the order of the day. Please do wear what you feel comfortable in. I am told that bright colours are the new black!
Please do let us know if you intend to attend. Everyone is welcome, we are just trying to get an idea of numbers. Contact email is henry@lewingtoin.im

British Heart Foundation
Mum did not actually specify a charity that she wanted to support, but we also know that she was very generous. So, if you wanted to make a donation to any cause in Mum's name please do. Given Mum's circumstances we think BHF are appropriate however, you will all have your own memories and you will all know what you think she would like, so please do whatever you think best. Do not feel obliged to make a donation, Mum would not have wanted that.
