A Remarkable Heart for Animal Welfare
Some people give time; Esme Fordham gives her heart. At 87 years old, the Essex volunteer has been honoured for more than a decade of devoted service to Remus Horse Sanctuary.
Honoured at a special ceremony at Chelmsford Cathedral, Esme received a silver plate award for her incredible contribution to the voluntary sector. Volunteering more than 40 hours a week, she supports the Sanctuary through hands-on animal care, preparing medication and assisting with fundraising efforts.
A cancer survivor with an unstoppable spirit, Esme continues to inspire everyone around her with her compassion and determination. Her love for the animals shines through in everything she does.
At iCollectClothes, we are continually inspired by individuals like Esme and remain committed to supporting charities that make a meaningful difference every day.💚
