Even then, the different approaches between generations became obvious. ‘When you are part of a family business, you are brought up with it but there is also an instinct to rebel against it,’ Simon says. Lucinda Baring Add to myFT. My second … Michael John Wilmot Malet Vaughan, second son of John David Malet Vaughan, 8th Earl of Lisburne. Lay & Wheeler, a 150-year-old family business very similar to Berry Bros and perhaps their closest competitor, was bought by Majestic in March, and Avery’s of Bristol, established in 1793, is now owned by Laithwaites. George’s name was emblazoned on the shop in 1810, and when he died in 1854, his sons, George and Henry, became the first Berry brothers to run the company, which remained unchanged for another 90 years. News Corp is a network of leading companies in the worlds of diversified media, news, education, and information services.WHEN I was a child, I had a sketchy awareness of Great Ormond Street Hospital.I remember its fundraising ads flashing across my TV screen, conjuring a mix of unease and relief — unease that some children could be so unwell; selfish relief that I wasn’t one of them.This scary-to-me children’s hospital in London felt a world away from my sheltered existence.I never dreamt that one day its corridors would come to feel so familiar.My second child, Alfie, became a GOSH patient when he was four.We had enjoyed a happy, carefree summer and as September rolled around, my sun-kissed little boy started his first week at school — his uniform too big, his mop of blond hair too long.Three days later, still in that uniform, Alfie was being taken by ambulance to GOSH. Many children have their own en-suite room, with a separate bed for a parent, prompting many of our visitors to comment on the brilliance of our health insurance — no one could believe our room wasn’t a private expense, that Alfie was a patient of the National Health Service.But while the NHS covers the hospital’s running costs, I’ve since learned that it is the hospital’s charity arm that allows it to remain a cut above — philanthropy funds the state-of-the-art theatre where Alfie had his operation; the well-stocked playrooms where we idled away the hours; the play specialist who prepared him for surgery, helping a four-year-old fathom what lay ahead; the Disney-themed play area where Alfie and his sister Violet played hide-and-seek in a pirate ship.Most importantly, to my mind, the charity also helps to fund the hospital’s pioneering research into new and kinder treatments and cures.It is the largest dedicated funder of paediatric research in the UK and, as a result, GOSH is one of the top three children’s research hospitals in the world.I’m no longer surprised that its annual fundraising target sits at around £90million.Alfie’s GOSH odyssey wasn’t over. Outside, the façade has remained largely unchanged for centuries. Alfie and Lucinda Baring with her third child, while Alfie was undergoing treatment This scary-to-me children’s hospital in London felt a world away from my sheltered existence. But I had to follow the rules.’ Willis went to work in marketing, which he turned out to be very good at, and Simon began to worry if they could afford to bring him back.He did and Willis is now working in the Berry Bros’ Hong Kong office — a key part of Simon’s expansion plan, along with an office in Tokyo.
In 1754, her grandson, William Junior Pickering, took on John Clarke as his partner, and Clarke’s daughter married John Berry, a wine merchant from Exeter; when her father died in 1788, he left the shop to his infant grandson, George Berry. Hon. They have three children: Emma, Sophie and Edward. We assumed Alfie would need surgery, but why did we have to stay in hospital until the operation?Plus, there was the fear, shock and sheer horror of the words “brain tumour” sprinting alongside us, threatening to devour us at any moment.By the time we arrived at GOSH it was Friday night — the comforting hustle and bustle of the working week hushed, the corridors and canteen eerily deserted.All but the on-call doctors and surgeons were now at home, so most of our questions would have to wait until Monday — a lifetime away.I’ll never forget the ward sister’s kindness that bleak evening — taking me aside and letting me cry, enveloping me in her embrace.She also made allowances and let us both stay the night (there is a one-parent rule), finding me a bed in an empty room — out of compassion but also, I suspect, because I was heavily pregnant, a ticking time bomb liable to detonate (the nurses felt) under the stress.I also remember the mother I met in the ward’s playroom that evening.
