  • Samantha Robinson says:

    I have fond memories of Janet from girls bridge as a youngster, and would frequently see her out and about on the go on her travels. She also supported my mum at girls brigade, so it’s clear Janet left a true legacy spanning decades. A deeply sad loss for her family and friends, and the whole girls brigade and wider community. May she rest in peace. Xx

  • Mandy Hartley says:

    Very saddened to read about Janet she said her mother were the nicest people you could meet. The Girls Brigade sessions at Atlas Street rooms were great times. We were a bit naughty at times but they never gave up on us. Sincere condolences to her family
