2. In lieu of floral tributes we would ask that donations are made to Pure Insight (pure-insight.org.uk/ ) a charity providing services to young care experienced people which was close to Ian’s heart, via their Just Giving page . justgiving.com/pureinsight16…
Thank you,
Sue & Karen

As a care experienced adult I felt reassurance that my experience would not be so easily repeated in today's system because there are social workers like you to ensure the children receive CARE, I am sure that because of you and your work many do so, thank you for being that hope

Took time out to read this this morning, quietly with time to reflect.
From the interactions we’ve had on twitter,I’ve always taken note of @IDickson258 words,thoughts & views.
This was a very moving insight of your lived experience & will stay with me.

I’m sorry to read this Ian. I have followed you since I first worked with a charity that supports and guides care leavers and learned a lot from your tweets. I hope your onward journey is as comfortable as it can be 🧡

Ian you have been a force for love and kindness in an often soulless system. I know you are surrounded by love now. You will leave an amazing legacy in your work but most of all in your wonderful family and those special grandchildren. I have learnt so much from you. Thank you.

People may forget what you said, Ian.
They may forget what you did.
But they will never forget how you made them feel.
