In loving memory of Alexandra Kay
 
It is with deepest regret and sorrow that we announce the death of our Founder Charlotte’s daughter, Alexandra Kay Vøhtz Petersen, who passed away last weekend aged just 28 years, following a long battle with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
  
Known to many of her friends and family as Sandra, she was the original inspiration for Green People and played an important part in both our company and our lives. 
 


Our sincere condolences go out to her family, friends and all others who were blessed by the presence of this remarkable young woman during her all-too-brief life.
 


Alexandra’s mission was to help others, and moving forward, Green People will be fulfilling her wishes and supporting The Ehlers-Danlos Support UK.  If you wish to find out more and donate, please visit www.ehlers-danlos.org
