writes Katie Jarvis. Jemima Friend, a former pupil at Minchinhampton Primary, Deer Park and Stroud High, died at home on February 3 after being diagnosed with leukaemia two years ago. Now a fundraising campaign has been set up in her name to help other blood cancer sufferers. Jemima was in her first year of university, studying history at Goldsmiths in London, when she fell ill. “She was extraordinarily brave throughout the different treatments she faced,” her mum Julie said. “Even when she knew she didn’t have long to live, Jemima was determined to make the most of the time she had left.”
