The CPCA is sorry to have to report the sad passing of CPCA member Monica Clarke.

Monica was a stalwart and passionate supporter of the CPCA, for many years, and threw her considerable energy into supporting its aims, ideals and beliefs. She could be relied upon to attend every event we organised, whether it be social or campaigning. Monica had a strong moral compass and a passionate sense of right and wrong. Her contribution to our work was outstanding and, not being afraid to speak her own mind, she gave many a seasoned politician a ‘hard time’.
Monica was extremely charismatic, being made of stern stuff, and I am proud to be able to include her as one of my friends. Her passing is a great loss and she will be missed by very many people.
