About The Kathleen Graham Trust
The trust is named after Frances’s late mother Mary Kathleen Graham, who was born on 28thMay 1942. She was the second child of Robert and Mary Mc Cutcheon and was always known by her middle name Kathleen.
Like many Irish mothers she had a great wit, a sharp tongue and a massive heart. She did everything she could all her life to help everyone she met whether it was with advice, time, money or practical help, and was never happier than when doing something to help someone. However, her most abiding love was reserved for her 6 children, 17 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.
Sadly, Kathleen died before her eldest daughter had the good luck to win the lottery on 1st Jan 2019 so in her memory and using the legacy, she left them, the family have established this trust in her memory and to carry on her work in helping the community she loved. Kathleen did everything she could, all her life, to help anyone she could whether it was with advice, time, money or practical help.
