Memorial

Paul Hendey

xx xx, xxxx - xx xx, xxxx

Paul was born in Royston on 8th January 1958 and remained in the area until his early 30s. He spent the next 30 years in Monmouthshire, South Wales before returning to his birth town in 2019. Having qualified as a mental health nurse in 1981 he gained experience in working for both the NHS and independent sector. In 1987 he joined Partnerships in Care and spent several years working at Kneesworth House, Royston. After some time in Lampeter during his university years, the urge to return to the welsh hills was met in 1992 when he was given the opportunity to help set up the newly bought Llanarth Court near Abergavenny as Senior Nurse. During his time there he worked his way up to Director of Nursing, then Director of Clinical Services, and then Regional Director of Clinical Governance. He was involved in the opening of Abbey House in Malvern, which in turn led him to become Hospital Director for the service. In 2013 he joined the corporate compliance team which enabled him to put all his years of experience and his font of knowledge to great use, particularly when the new company, Elysium Healthcare was formed. Paul was an intelligent, kind and generous character who would always willingly help others; a true gentleman. His stories were brilliant and his comments were comical. His love of reading was evident; he most certainly knew his history! He enjoyed gardening and on occasions cooking his own produce. Paul lived for work and for his dogs - you would rarely see him without his beloved pet and loyal companion Lola, and before her the adorable Sally. Paul sadly passed away in September 2020 at the age of 62. He is survived by his Mother, Pam, his Step-Father, Jack and his spaniel, Lola. He will be sorely missed by all those that knew him. Time may pass and fade away but these memories of him will always stay. May he rest in peace.

I'm so sorry to hear of the tragic news of Paul's passing. He will be greatly missed. He was a true gentleman, with a gentle voice and approach. His visits were always a great pleasure & his beautiful companion Lola, who we all take a turn to dog sit. Gone way too soon. My thoughts go out to your family, friends and colleagues at this very sad time. xx

I only worked with Paul for a short time- but he created teams out of disparate people earning their respect, and it was clear people thought a lot of him. Personal circumstances meant I left to care for a dying Mum- and Paul had been assigned elsewhere- RIP Paul. An old school Gentleman with a good wicked sense of fun

I have known Paul since his time at Llanarth Court followed by Abbey House and latterly in his role as Compliance Manager. Paul was truly one of the good guys. A kind and gentle soul who would always go out of his way to help any body. He will be sadly missed

I have known Paul since he first interviewed me for a job at Llanarth Court in1993. Since then I have had the good fortune and privilege of working closely with him and ultimately alongside him when I joined the compliance team. He was always an immense pleasure to work with. Gentle and good humoured but with an amazing depth of knowledge which he was always willing to share with everyone. He was also a great story teller and loved to share amazingly humorous anecdotes from his experiences in his nursing career. Paul’s dedication to his work was only matched by his love and dedication to his canine companions. It is impossible to remember Paul without thinking of Sally, and more lately Lola, always by his side or at his feet whilst he was working or patiently waiting in the car for him to return. Ultimately I came to regard Paul not only as a brilliant and supportive colleague but also as as a very good friend and I, as will many others, will miss him dearly. His untimely passing is so so sad and my heart goes out to his family and friends.

I'm so sad to lose you, my dear friend, so unexpectedly and far too soon. My thoughts are with your family and your colleagues. Others have described your qualities very well here. I hope that they have benefited from knowing you as much as I have. Your passing is a great loss to us all.
