IT was a great shock to hear of the tragic death of Alison Thomason (formerly Cross).
She worked unceasingly 10 years ago to start a Shopmobility scheme in Bury and eventually funding was made available through various means. The success of it is a great testimonial to her efforts, with the 776 members using the scheme always being grateful for her inspiration, which enables them to have the freedom to shop.
We will always remember you, Alison.
EILEEN TAPLIN MBE,
secretary,
Bury Shopmobility.
