Tribute to Peter Ainsworth, 1959 - 2023
Dedicated to the memory of Peter Ainsworth
As some of you will know, my dad Peter was diagnosed with cancer in October 2022 and sadly passed away in February 2023. For the last couple of weeks of his life, my dad was being looked after by the wonderful staff at St. Leonard's Hospice in York. They helped him to manage his pain and kept him as comfortable as possible as his condition worsened, as well as encouraging my mum to take the rest she needed. The nurses, doctors, volunteers and everyone else at St. Leonard's were so friendly and welcoming during such a difficult time, and the facilities were beautifully kept, homely and comfortable for both my dad and visiting family.
The care at St. Leonard's is free to use but not free to give, so I have set up this fundraising page to raise money so that other people in a situation similar to my dad's can benefit from the same level of top quality end-of-life care. I'd love it if you could donate to the wonderful St. Leonard's Hospice, who looked after my dad so well in his final weeks.
