Spoke to Wayne today, the children's guardian, he is overwhelmed by all the kind words and sentiment which have been passed on. He is setting up a bank account for the children as suggested and will provide the details on here next week for those who wish to contribute. I will also be releasing details of a yearly commemoration and fund-raiser later on.
Thanks
Dan

I met Rich's neice Kayleigh at the Lee Scratch Perry concert in York. I asked after the children. She said they are doing OK. They are having specialist counselling to help them which is a long haul process. Rich's eldest daughter has his trophy from Brid and polishes it every night. Mothers day coming up will be a hard milestone for them all but they are being well looked for.
