Campaigner Richard Taylor, whose son Damilola Taylor was murdered at the age of just 10, has died, his family have announced.
Damilola was left bleeding to death in a stairwell in Peckham, south-east London, after he was attacked and slashed with a broken bottle on his way home from a library.After three crown court trials, his two killers, brothers Ricky and Danny Preddie, were finally put behind bars. They were supported by famous faces including footballer Rio Ferdinand, who grew up in Peckham and backed the family in their charity work.
The Damilola Taylor Trust was launched in 2001 after Mr and Mrs Taylor met Charles, who was then the Prince of Wales, with the aim “to provide a legacy of hope and opportunity for disadvantaged and under-privileged young people”. Chief executive Ndidi Okezie said: “Everyone at UK Youth is truly saddened to learn of the passing of Richard. He was an incredible man who made a real difference to so many young people’s lives.
