In loving memory of Ranjit Singh

We are heartbroken by the loss of our dear colleague and friend, Ranjit Singh, our Commercial Director, who passed away on Monday 26 May 2025.

Ranjit was a deeply valued member of our team and a widely respected figure in our community. His integrity, leadership and unwavering dedication left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of working with him. He cared so deeply about his teams, and about Milton Keynes, and his passing leaves an irreplaceable hole in our hearts.

Our thoughts are with Ranjit’s family, friends and all those who knew and loved him. We’re grateful for the compassion and support being shown during this incredibly difficult time.

 

Kate Broadhurst
Willen Hospice Chief Executive

When the pandemic hit, we had to cancel or postpone our fundraising events and close our shops for months on end, but alongside our regular givers, our Lottery gave us the financial security we needed.

A huge THANK YOU to all of our Lottery players, past, present and future, for helping us to be there for local families.
