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:

For those new to Noah's story, here is a podcast with his mother Fiona:

I was very pleased to see Alexis Rodney's tweet yesterday and didn't know it had made it into the papers - some good publicity there indeed, plus over 1000 worldwide retweets. It's in the Mirror and Belfast Live too. 💙

IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM FIONA & NIAMH THIS EVENING - PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGES:

As we already knew, at short notice this week and without any explanation, the coroner decided to livestream tomorrow's hearing instead of Fiona, Niamh and their legal team attending the court in person. The coroner has now, at such very short notice today, cancelled the hearing tomorrow. The reason given is that his JUNIOR counsel is unable to attend. Please note that the JUNIOR barrister does not always attend preliminary hearings and it is the senior counsel who speaks on the coroner's behalf. We can come to our own conclusions about why the coroner has now chosen not to go ahead tomorrow at all, as he surely could have done. However a number of important issues have been conveyed to Fiona and Niamh today during a consultation with their legal team, which throw more light on why the coroner seeks to avoid addressing them tomorrow. An urgent rescheduling before the summer recess has been requested by the family, but as yet they do not know when that will be.

There has been a refusal to release Legal Aid funds for the family's own expert witnesses for Noah. Expert witnesses are essential and the coroner has already instructed his own expert witnesses.

This has all obviously devastated Fiona and Niamh, after an already traumatic week including anniversaries for Noah, and having to mentally prepare for tomorrow. But they are the strongest of mothers and women, and they are fighting for their beloved and beautiful Noah. Especially with our support, they will not be beaten.

Fiona and Niamh ask that the peaceful show of support at Langanside Courts, Belfast at 2pm tomorrow still goes ahead. Please attend if you can. 💙
