Funeral arrangements for beloved colleague Sarah-Jane

Last month we shared the news that our much-loved colleague and friend Sarah- Jane Cunningham sadly passed away.

For those who would like to pay their respects, Sarah-Jane’s funeral will be taking place on Thursday, 18^th August at 11am at Horsham St Faith Crematorium, Norwich (Manor Road, NR10 3LF).

If you plan to attend, you’re asked to wear either operational or dress uniform or traditional funeral attire. All uniformed staff are invited to join Sarah- Jane’s Guard of Honour which start to form at 10.40am.

Sarah-Jane’s loved ones have asked for family flowers only. The Trust is sending a wreath on behalf of ‘the ambulance family’ and donations are welcome for the Ambulance Service Benevolent Fund.

A wake will follow the service funeral at Horsham and Newton St Faith Centre (Manor Road, NR10 3LF), but is for family, friends and close colleagues.
