ANNOUNCEMENT

Charles Goldsmith - 1977 - 2026

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Lillywhite International co-founder, Charlie Goldsmith.  After an heroic 6 year battle with cancer, Charlie passed away peacefully on the 16th June. He was surrounded by his family. Charlie & John Ferguson established the business we today know as Lillywhite International in 2008. Working closely together for nearly 20 years the pair grew the businesses and travelled the world and establishing relationships. In 2016 Charlie co-founded The Lillywhite Foundation - something he was very proud of. Charlies, quick brain, humour, and talent for building relationships was a vital part of the success of the businesses, and he leaves a huge void in all our lives. We send our deepest condolences to Pippa, Izzy and Fred, and the rest of Charlies family, and we would offer our thanks to The Royal Marsden hospital who over the 6 years provided outstanding care and support. RIP - Charlie
