Many Mumsnetters will have heard about Noah Donohoe, a bright, musical, sporty, beautiful, gentle, funny, kind and innocent 14 year old Belfast boy, who disappeared on Father's Day 2020 while on a cycle ride to meet his schoolfriends. Noah never arrived and tragically his naked body was found in a storm drain 6 days later.

This Monday, 20th June 2022, at 6.11pm, on the eve of the 2 year anniversary of Noah's disappearance, there will be a gathering in Liverpool at the waterfront by Cunard Building. The time has been chosen because it is the last time Noah was seen on CCTV. All are welcome to join in, to remember Noah and to show solidarity with Fiona, so please just turn up. This is being organised by Sonia Bassey MBE and others.

Nearly 2 years after his disappearance, Noah's mother Fiona and his auntie Niamh are still fighting for the truth about what happened to their beloved Noah and for justice for him. Thank you to those many Mumsnetters who have signed Fiona's petition on Change against files in the police investigation being kept secret. As many signatures as possible are needed before the next coroners court date on 1st July 2022. For those who would still like to sign, a link can easily be found in the OP of this thread:

The next date for wee Noah's inquest has been set for 1st July, 2022 at Langanside Courts, Belfast. The time is likely to be midday, but to be confirmed. If you are or can be in Belfast then, support is very much needed and very much welcomed outside court by Fiona and Niamh.

Please will you help to prevent files from the police investigation being kept secret and support Fiona by signing her petition? As many signatures as possible are needed before the Inquest, so please share it too if you can. The link and more information can easily be found in the OP of this thread here:
www.mumsnet.com/talk/petitions_noticeboard/4573833-noah-donohoe-his-mothers-fight-for-the-truth-and-justice-please-help-stop-the-police-coroner-and-brandon-lewis-from-keeping-investigation-files-into-the-death-of-a-child-secret-thread-3

It's crucial that Brandon Lewis, Conservative MP for Great Yarmouth and Northern Ireland Secretary of State, does not sign off the application from the police (PSNI) and coroner for a Public Interest Immunity Certificate to keep 4 files of information secret relating to their investigation - if you can call it that - into Noah's death and disappearance.

For those wanting to object to the files being kept secret, please sign and share Fiona's petition and here are Brandon Lewis's contact details:
members.parliament.uk/member/4009/contact
www.facebook.com/BrandonKennethLewis/
twitter.com/BrandonLewis
instagram.com/BrandonLewis

A new and independent investigation into Noah's disappearance and death and a public inquiry are being called for, as there is now no confidence in the police (PSNI) and coroner.

Factual information for those new to Noah's story or wanting to know more is available to read here:

All that 'justice' has achieved for Noah during this time is two theft and handling stolen goods prosecutions for his laptop. Not much that, is it, for an innocent and promising life lost?

MNettersForNoahAndFiona · 26/06/2022 19:07

Two years ago tomorrow, at 10.45am, 27th June, Noah's naked body was retrieved from a dark and dirty drain. Now, as then, the police say 'No Foul Play' and have applied for a Public Interest Immunity Certificate to keep files from their investigation secret.

This is Noah. How would you feel and what would you do if you were his mother?

Please help Fiona to get the truth about her son's death and justice for him.

It is a cover up.

From Noah's auntie Niamh Donohoe:
This day 2 years ago, Fiona & I left Belfast at 7am to travel & meet a beautiful soul with a gift & ability to help families searching for loved ones.
When returning back to Belfast, I took a call from a senior member of the search to say it would be advisable to bring Fiona home.
My heart sank & in that moment I knew. The lady we had visited had agreed to return to Belfast with us to retrace Noah's steps, even though I knew they had potentially found Noah, I drove dreading the worst news ever, but still hoping I was wrong.
The police had also made their way to Cookstown to intercept us & prevent us from hearing anything via SM or third hand. They followed us back to Belfast & when we reached Fiona & Noah's home they arrived just ahead of us & were waiting. They gave us the heart-breaking news.
They had found Fiona's precious baby, our beautiful boy Noah💙.
That day this part of our nightmare began. No mother or family should have to bury a precious baby & then be subjected to such cruelty & abhorrent treatment because they want the truth.
#JusticeForNoahDonohoe💙

I have to share some quite shocking news. The coroner, Joe McCrisken, has now decided to deny Noah's mummy Fiona the right to attend court in person on Friday for Noah's Inquest hearing. Instead he intends to livestream the hearing from Langanside Courts to Fiona's solicitors' office, KRW Law at 2pm. This shows such disrespect to Fiona, who had made it clear that she wished to be seated in court for her son's Inquest, and has been mentally preparing herself for this. For a case where 'no foul play' is being claimed, they seem to be putting an awful lot of effort into building every obstacle they can to prevent the truth being discussed in the open.

It seems more important than ever that there is still a show of support outside Langanside Courts, Belfast on Friday at 2pm. If you were intending to go, please still do. Fiona and Niamh would welcome it. 💙

Why has the coroner denied Noah’s mum this? It makes no sense. It’s cruel.

MNettersForNoahAndFiona · 29/06/2022 00:18

It is cruel @Rummikub - what they have done and are doing to this mother is akin to torture.

It seems likely that the coroner and police (PSNI) do not want to have to look Fiona in the eye when they give whatever update they intend to give on Friday. I think they are also concerned about the level of support Fiona has in terms of the petition now with 307,015 signatures against the Public Interest Immunity Certificate, on social media around the world, and in the local community who turn out to support her at vigils and at the coroners court. They should know this is not going away, whatever they do, until justice is done. 💙
