STOKE Prior firm LG Harris are set to host a charity event in memory of longstanding employee Michael Thompson, who died when his bike collided with a lorry on March 31.

The fundraising day, on Saturday, June 11, was organised by Michael's colleagues and friends to raise money for Brake and Midlands Air Ambulance Charity in his memory.

The 65-year-old husband, dad and granddad tragically lost his life while riding his bike to work, and now LG Harris is inviting residents to come along and celebrate his life.

The event will start at 2pm, and is set to include a bouncy castle, five-a-side football tournament, raffle, face painting, cake stall and barbecue.
