News 1st Jan 2013 - 13 Jan 2013Alice Pyne We would like to pay tribute to Alice Pyne, a wonderfully inspirational young woman who passed away yesterday after a long battle with cancer. Alice received a quilt from us in 2009 (on our website as Alice P). Alice went on to become a young woman of worldwide repute through her blog: http://alicepyne.blogspot.co.uk. She campaigned tirelessly for eligible people to join the bone-marrow donation list, and set up her own charity Alice's Escapes. Last year she received the British Empire Medal. Alice touched so many people in her short life and we are devastated to hear the news of her passing. Rest in peace, Alice. A bright star shines tonight.
