Memories of Sinead
Sinead's family are collecting photos and memories of Sinead to celebrate her life. Please share your stories, a message, or any photos you have.
Your contributions mean a lot. Thank you for taking the time to help us honour her memory. She is loved and will be missed by many.
Service Sheet for Sinead
Sinead’s service sheet is available digitally — to follow along during the service or to revisit later, in your own time.
We’ve chosen not to print hard copies, in a way that honours Sinead’s deep care for the environment and gentle way of living. Thank you for understanding this choice and for holding her memory with us.
Donations for Sinead
A message from Sinead's family:
Thank you for all of your condolences and acts of kindness. In lieu of flowers, we would appreciate donations to causes that Sinead was passionate about. If you worked with Sinead on another cause, continuing to support that cause would also be lovely. Here are a few options:
Al-Nuseirat Camp Kitchen, in Gaza
Al-Nuseirat Camp Kitchen is a kitchen run in Al-Nuseirat, Gaza, and expanding to Northern Gaza. Ahmed Syaim and his team of cooks have been serving their community for months during the genocide, purchasing ingredients available in the market and feeding hundreds of people.
Rising Tide
To build a powerful, nonviolent movement to stop coal and gas corporations from destroying our planet, ignited by a landmark struggle at the world’s largest coal port.
Jenny's Place
Our vision is to help prevent domestic and family violence and to promote healthy relationships by amplifying community education and awareness.
Zara's House
To understand and address the challenges that refugees and asylum seekers face when settling into multi-cultural Australia.
