Josie's Dragonfly Trust

Dedicated to Brightening the Lives of Children & Teenagers with Cancer.

Josie Madeline Grove designed the Dragonfly Pendant in the last month of her life in the hope that
she could make a difference to the children and friends with Cancer that she was leaving behind.
Josie had Acute Myeloid Leukemia and died in 2007 after a long battle and two bone marrow
transplants, aged just 16.

The first Dragonfly samples arrived just 4 days before Josie died and she was absolutely thrilled
with them. Through the Dragonfly Pendant Josie’s strength courage and happiness lives on and she
continues to inspire many thousands of people all over the world.

Josie’s Dragonfly Trust makes a huge and real difference to children in cancer hospitals across
the UK and especially to children & teenagers, where treatment is no longer considered curative.

Silver items start from 17 pounds and include a 5 pound donation to Josie’s Dragonfly Trust. Gold
items are also available which include a 20 pound donation. The charity also relies heavily on
fundraising and donations.

Josie’s Dragonfly Trust is a voluntary organization.(Registered Charity No 1121768)

Rest In Peace Josie

The good lord looks for angels
Full of tenderness and love
He took one glance at you Josie
Then chose you for above
And as the angels raised you
To the heavens in the sky
You left your love and all your warmth
And your beautiful dragonfly

In Memory of Josie and all the children who have passed with leukemia.
