Both parents of a teenager who was murdered four years ago have set up a fundraiser walk to remember their son.
The walk will take place on Saturday, November 2, the day after Olly Stephen's seventeenth birthday.
Olly was stabbed by another teenager, who cannot be named, back in January 2021 near his home in Bugs Bottom fields in Emmer Green.
