It is with deep regret and sadness, that we have learnt of the death of Audrey Blackburn, who died peacefully in Harrogate District Hospital on Wednesday 12th February 2025 after a short illness.
Her funeral is to be held at 2.30pm on Thursday 20th March at Maple Park Crematorium, Skipton Bridge, Thirsk. YO7 4SA and afterwards at Ripon City Golf Club.
Audrey’s son, Steve Clegg, has written to say that he knows how much Audrey enjoyed being part of Ripon Writers’ Group and how much she benefited from the friendships and writing skills she developed as a member.
Although Audrey has been unable to attend meetings for quite some time, she will always be remembered for her lively contributions and for all the hard work she put in during her time as Chair. We shall miss her.
