Kevin’s Legacy
Remembering Kevin Hemmings
Keeping Generations Healthy was founded in memory of Kevin Hemmings, a much-loved father, family member, friend, and professional carer who died suddenly because of ischaemic heart disease.
Kevin’s death was a painful reminder of the impact that preventable health conditions can have on families and communities.
Out of that loss came a commitment to continue his legacy by helping others live healthier, more active, and more connected lives.
Remembering Kevin Hemmings
Kevin was known for his warmth, kindness, humour, and encouragement. He cared deeply about people and believed in helping others feel included, supported, and valued.
He had a strong passion for sport, especially football, and understood the important role that physical activity can play in confidence, wellbeing, discipline, friendship, and community connection.
A Life of Care and Inclusion
Kevin dedicated his professional life to caring for people, particularly young children and children with special educational needs.
His work reflected a strong commitment to inclusion, patience, understanding, and helping families and young people feel confident and supported.
He believed that everyone deserved to feel seen, respected, and encouraged.
