READING Pride organisers have set up a fundraiser to help cover the costs of the funerals of the three victims in Saturday's terror attack.

Money will also go towards a memorial to be placed at the site of the attack in Forbury Gardens.

James Furlong, Joe Ritchie-Bennett and David Wails were killed in a suspected terror incident as they sat in Forbury Gardens on Saturday evening.

All three were members of the LGBT community, and CEO of Reading Pride Martin Cooper described them as "vibrant and fun", adding that the community would severely miss them.
