21st January 1961 – 15th June 2024
We were incredibly sad to hear that our good friend Howard Pickles passed away last month.
Howard had been Treasurer on SNAPS’ Board of Trustees since 2017 helping us to ensure that SNAPS’ finances were in the best possible health. His expert knowledge and advice were incredibly valuable to the management of SNAPS and helped ensure that the charity remained in a solid financial position. As well as his financial acumen, Howard was a skilled photographer who gave his time willingly to beautifully capture the key moments at SNAPS’ events. He was fantastic with SNAPS’ staff, volunteers and families, and his cheeky grin always managed to generate a true smile from his subjects. I am sure everyone who came to SNAPS Superhero Challenge will remember him fondly.
Howard was generous with his time, expertise, and the care he showed to everyone who met him. We send our love to Anne, James, Kate and all his family at this difficult time. We will miss his knowledge, sense of humour and kindness greatly but his incredible support of SNAPS, in so many ways, will leave a lasting legacy that no one will forget.
-Lucy Owen, Chief Executive, SNAPS
