Four months ago, a very close friend of mine was murdered in a bottle attack in a nightclub in London. You may have heard about it in the papers at the time- it was during a Blackberry promotional event at which Jessie J was performing. His name was Phil Sherriff and he was a husband and father of two young children aged five and eight. You can imagine the devastation that his death has wreaked on his family.
His wife Jane is runnning a campaign to ban the sale of alcohol in glass containers in nightclubs and venues with a late licence. Phil's death was entirely preventable, and it is her wish that no other mum should have to go through what she is going through.
Please take the time to visit her campaign page at:

There is more information there about her family and husband and how you can help. Please sign the petition and share the link with your friends.
Jane's life and family have been torn apart. Her children are without her father, it is likely that the youngest will barely remember him. Please help Jane in her campaign to stop this happening to any other mother.
