Canford warmly invites you to a Celebration of Life for Martin M. Marriott, to be held in the Assembly Hall on Sunday 1st February at 2:00pm, with tea and cake served afterwards.
All are welcome to join in remembering and celebrating Martin and Judith's lives.
Please kindly confirm your attendance by Sunday 25th January.
It is the family’s wish that if you would like to make a donation in memory of Martin, they would be delighted if you could do so to the Martin Marriott Foundation. Donations can be made whilst registering attendance or via our donations form.
"In the 1980s, I was given a place under the Assisted Places Scheme. When I attended my 30-year reunion, my 12-year-old son asked to attend. He was quickly lost in the crowd but reappeared moments later with Ben Vessey (Headmaster), who introduced him to Martin and Judith Marriott. On the journey home, he asked if he could go to Canford. Thanks to the Martin Marriott Foundation, he was given a place, and he has just finished five incredible years as a direct result of the support he received." Old Canfordian
Dress code: Smart attire, in colours that feel right to you. Dark or bright are equally welcome as we honour and celebrate Martin and Judith’s life.
