The family of Ellie Carey, killed on her bike last week, is organising a vigil via twitter and Facebook to take place on Wednesday at 6pm, location Bermondsey Square.
I have the greatest admiration for the families of people like Ellie, Brian Dorling, Eilidh Cairns and Alex McVity, amongst others, who have worked, and are still working, so hard to make our roads safer for others. They have made me feel ashamed of my own past complacency and acceptance of the way things are on our roads, and start to actually do something, even if it is only writing lots of emails. They have shown that ordinary people still have the power to change things for the better, (look at what Cynthia Barlow got Cemex to do). Inspiring. I definitely think as many of us as possible should be there to show our support for them.
