Nicole, SO saddened and shocked to learn of Seán's untimely passing. What an inspirational human being who left his mark on all of us who knew him, if even only after meeting him the once! My sincere condolences to you, Ollie and to Seán's parents,Seán Snr and his mum 🙏🙏

[Seán Fitzsimons @ballyaltonboy]

Hello everyone.

It’s Nicole here (Sean’s wife)

I wanted to let you all know that unfortunately Sean passed away yesterday, suddenly and unexpectedly.

Sean was a fierce advocate for disability rights, it was his passion and his calling. He never stopped fighting for the rights of disabled people. He faced many battles in his life, and took them all on with strength and resilience I have never seen before. As many of you know and may have worked with Sean, he was intelligent, funny, warm…I could go on.

Sean was also a loving and devoted husband, father, son and brother. He loved and was loved by many. As you can imagine, we are all utterly heartbroken.

Keep fighting the good fight in Sean’s memory - it’s what he would have wanted.

Nicole

It was an inspirational visit last week to hear from the scholarship recipients, and a reminder of why the board of Trustees support schemes such as this one. Well done Susannah, Áine and Aidan.
