Passed on from B-Movie LJ
"Hi people,
Many of you will have heard about the tragic death of Sophie Lancaster, beaten to death for looking different. If you need reminding then:

If you are heading to the Whitby Goth Weekend this October please take time out to visit the info stall in the Spa foyer where small black ribbon roses will be sold to be worn in her memory, and donations accepted to help pay for a memorial bench and plaque to be installed.
This bench is going to be placed near the Royal Hotel, close to the whalebones for those of you that know the town, looking out to sea.
100% of any money raised will be going to the bench fund, since the roses were paid for by a collection last month at InsanitoriuM. Please contact me if you have any questions.
This bench will cost in the region of £1600, but we hope to raise much more than that, and any funds left over will be used in reforestation schemes in the UK to plant trees in her memory.
Please repost this anywhere you think might help, directing people to me through thirteen13 if they need to know more. If you have you own mailing lists then please consider forwarding this.
Thanks for your time
[Collections will be taken at B-Movie in October and at the 80s night in Whitby]"
