In loving memory of Ashley Cooper who sadly passed away on 5th June 2026

Donations in lieu of flowers to The Major Oak fund, held by the charity Forever Notts, (previously Nottinghamshire Community Foundation) is a small grant fund providing support for exceptional local projects.

The criteria is that projects help improve the mental and emotional wellbeing of local people, especially things that bring people together in our local communities.

With kind donations from local people we have already funded wellbeing festivals for children, food & clothing for people in need, and urgent repairs to keep community buildings open.

Thank you for you kind donations, they are really appreciated.

Ashley. A great friend. A one off. Humorous positive , and with a unique wisdom and way of looking at things. Any time spent with you always ended with the world seeming a happier and better place. Loads of wonderful memories. You will be terribly missed. Much love to Sue and family.

A great friend who made me laugh(a lot) who will be sadly missed both on and off the tennis court. Unfortunately I cannot attend the funeral tomorrow but I will be thinking of Sue and the family and of course Ash.

Ian and I send our deepest condolences and love to Sue and all the family.
I have so many happy memories of Ashley throughout our freewheeling days at Sheffield Uni …and then those early years in London ……such fond memories of fab dinners at the flat in Fulham…..Ashley and Sue the consummate hosts….
Throughout it all Ashley was always his wry, witty self…..always ready with a deadpan retort.
I feel so lucky to have known you Ashley and I will never forget you. I sadly will not be able to attend the funeral but there is nowhere else I would rather be.
