This headstone was destroyed in June 2020. Whatever ones politics, the desecration of a grave, a place of memorial to an innocent, is abhorent. Please let us demonstrate out shared humanity and inherent good of the people in this country and make sure it is restored

1 year agoNext time I feel down about things in the world I’ll click on this link and see that when I thought we could raise £1000 we have raised over £4000. It really does restore faith in people. I hope we can keep going - this act was so repugnant. Thank you all so much

As a Bristolian I have been aware of this grave for many years. It's sad to see it damaged. Well done for this campaign.
