A Liverpool professor’s generous donation to Age Concern, following the death of his wife, will see her memory live on in a new activity room.
Frances Sarkar, who was born in Liverpool in 1936, showed "compassion and kindness towards older people" from a young age. At seventeen, Frances began visiting care homes devoting her spare time to chatting, organising trips out, and making clothes for the residents.
This kindness and dedication to the elderly was to span the rest of her life; for almost 60 years.
