Sarah Ferguson has suffered another setback after a plaque commemorating her charity work was removed, marking a fresh development for the former Duchess of York.
A commemorative plaque recognising Sarah Ferguson’s involvement in launching a “Homes from Home” facility near Great Ormond Street Hospital has reportedly been taken down.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s former wife unveiled the accommodation, operated by The Sick Children’s Trust, in 1990.
Photographs obtained by the Mail show a visible outline and two drill holes in the brickwork where the plaque was previously mounted.
Its removal comes as Ms Ferguson has stepped back from public life amid scrutiny over her links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
As per GB News, Great Ormond Street Hospital is not responsible for removing plaques from The Sick Children’s Trust buildings.
The independently run Homes from Home programme provides accommodation for families whose children are in intensive care or high-dependency units.
According to the hospital, residents benefit from "the additional support of house staff who welcome families and provide them with much-needed support during their stay."
The charity behind the scheme, The Sick Children’s Trust, was founded in 1982 by two medical professionals: Dr Jon Pritchard of Great Ormond Street Hospital and Professor James Malpas of St Bartholomew’s Hospital.
The Sick Children’s Trust operates nine homes across the UK, including in London, Cambridge, Leeds, Sheffield and Newcastle.
Sarah Ferguson dropped of several charities
Ferguson was dropped as patron of several charities in September 2025 over her links to Epstein, though she has not been accused of wrongdoing.
