Vickie’s funeral will be held at Thames View Crematorium on Friday 20th November at 1pm. Following the service, we will be celebrating her life at her favourite pub, the Coach and Horses in Strood.

VICKIE LOVED HATS!! And sequins. So please do come with suitably attired. The family will be suited and booted with silly hats too.

We have asked for donations to Thrombosis UK instead of flowers to support other people who go through what she did. You can donate via the link above, or via the just giving link we have set up:

Please let us know if you will be attending using this website and the attendance button.

Victoria Winslade sadly passed away on 14th October 2026.

Whether you went to school with her, or worked with her or simply shared a merry evening in her company, Vickie was the life and soul of the party.

She liked to do things her way, and heaven help you if you didn’t tow the line! But she was one of the most caring and thoughtful people you could ever hope to meet.

You were blessed to know she was in your corner.

Whatever she did, she did well - simply the best. She loved spending time with her friends and family, but most of all her silly little dogs and her husband Damien.

Please contact Verity or Damien directly for more information.

Vickie - that’s Vickie with an “ie, never a y - we shared some really fabulous times.
I remember the hat drawer - if we were having a bad day at work, we had all manner of head attire to choose from!

I had a camera roll full of thundery skies so I could stay up in Medway instead of risking the drive home in a storm 🤣 Cheeky code for a night at Casino’s with buy one get 2 free! And who can forget your karaoke rendition of Bjork - absolutely blew me away the first time I heard it!

It was a real comfort to have you & Damien round the corner from me when I lived in Strood, take aways, snow days, 2 (or was it 3) bottles of wine for £10 🥂
Our trip to Disneyland in the red Corsa, enjoying club lounge on the ferry.

We may not have seen as much of each other in recent years but I will remember you always with huge fondness - a smile that could light up a room.

I’m so sorry we can’t make the funeral as we are on holiday in Hurghada, I know Egypt was special to you - and we will be sure to raise a glass or 2 on Friday 20th.

A forever loyal friend and truly respected colleague, you will be so missed. May you rest in peace Vic 💕😘💛

Although I had only known Vickie for a few years, we became firm friends. She always lit up a bar, I mean room with her laughter and sense of fun .I will miss a great friend and colleague greatly. ❤️
