We have got a meeting on 28th aug with Wigan Council. They propose to remove Anthony Draper memorial wall. We will do all we can to keep it in place. If anyone is against the removal can you please sign the petition we can’t see any reason why the wall should be removed by the council! It’s not offensive! It’s not an eye sore! It is well maintained! It’s on the street where Anthony passed away and also lived with his partner, children and friends! His children and many others who knew Anthony walk, drive or ride past the memorial wall on a daily basis, they often say words to Anthony’ as they ride past to comfort them inn tragic loss of Anthony. Kaison still goes to play with his cats along the wall talking to his dad. It would be so unfair to just remove this wall when so many people appreciate its prescience.

Absolutely needs to be kept, in the memory of there partner, son and daddy, it’s well maintained and this is absolutely outrageous and causing unnecessary heart ache for all those closely connected, Wigan council sort it out!! You ought to be ashamed of the distress your causing to grieving loved ones

Please don’t take this wall down! It’s not just keeping his memory alive it’s also keeping his kids smile every time they walk past as well as his girlfriend and mum! Please don’t take it it’s doing no harm

This is all these children have left of their dad who tragically died here. It isn’t causing any harm nor is it an eyesore.

This is offending no one, this is somewhere his family and loved ones can go, its sad and upsetting enough for the mum to lose a child but now to want to take the last thing she has away is disgusting where is the empathy and sympathy come on have a little bit! I'm praying this isn't took down as your breaking a mums heart doing this

The rememberance wall isn't causing any harm to anyone. It's a small estate where Anthony was well known and loved.
