Sir Patrick was an avid Shakespearean, and some years ago in some dark times recorded a Sonnet a Day [Many of which you can find in this Youtube playlist](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLLiEya-Q4RQdTJb97i8gU6MXHZs_HUlB) which may offer some comfort in the coming days.

He also did a lot of charity work. He was an ambassador for [Refuge](https://refuge.org.uk/about-refuge/what-we-do/ambassadors/) a UK charity that supports survivors of domestic abuse.

As well as [Combat Stress](https://combatstress.org.uk/) a charity that supports veterans and their families.

If you're considering making memorial contributions, you could donate to either of the above. Or on his Instagram account they've stated that donations may be made to [Johns Hopkins Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center Fund](https://alzresearch.org/giving/) and [Alzheimer’s Foundation of America Caregiver Resources](https://alzfdn.org/donate/).

We will continue to create additional threads as required.

Rest In Peace, Sir Patrick.
