In Memory of Maddy Anholt

News - Sep 18

It is with great sadness that we share the news that Maddy Anholt (OC2007), has died aged 35. Maddy was an actor, comedian and appeared in numerous shows. Just last year she published ‘How to escape your psychopath: The essential handbook for escaping a toxic relationship’. She then became an ambassador for Women’s Aid. Last year she was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer. 

Maddy achieved so much and her picture with accompanying biography hangs in the Sixth Form Study Centre alongside fellow alumni. She was part of our Colyton family, and she will be greatly missed. We will create a memorial to honour her contribution to the community here at school.  

Our thoughts and prayers are with Maddy’s family, and a memorial fund has been set up to support her one-year-old daughter. https://www.gofundme.com/f/maddy-anholt
