#25 – Reuben’s Retreat
Reuben's Retreat
Reubens Retreat is a charity that was born in memory of Reuben Michael Graham, who passed away in August 2012 a month short of his second birthday.
Reuben’s mummy Nicola started the charity in order to support other families going through the same painful process – and set up a home form home for families of a bereaved child or those with life limiting or threatening conditions.
The charity needed to create a specialised bathroom with disabled equipment costing £15,000 and when they asked for a donation from Cheshire Freemasons we agreed to provide the full £15,000.
