Sadly, Ellie Parr, our esteemed director, colleague, and friend passed away on 24th June 2025.
Ellie was a much loved and valued member of the firm, and we are deeply heartbroken by her passing. Ellie really was our pride and joy. She made significant contributions to the firm’s success and was an inspirational leader to all the team. She worked tirelessly in creating a family work culture and it is thanks to her that the Houldsworth’s team has achieved this. We will forever be grateful to Ellie for her hard work, dedication, and friendship. We will miss her many qualities – her technical excellence in commercial law, guidance, pragmatic approach, and fun-loving sense of humour. Our hearts go out to Ellie’s beautiful family – her husband Dan and her amazing children Arthur (Art) and Edith, her beloved parents, sister Di, and many, many friends.
East Lancs Hospice is our chosen charity – a few years ago the firm won the corporate challenge raising over £15,000. The hospice holds a special place in our hearts, caring for our Managing Director’s aunt and colleague Rebecca Davies’ mother, Viv Cox.
On the 4th October we started our fundraising by doing a pub walk where we raised over 17,000.00.
We will now continue to support the hospice in memory of “Our Ellie” – the link is below if you would like to donate.
Our Ellie, forever 42, forever here with her Team Houldsworth’s – we will continue to make you proud ♥️
