Dame Elish!!

The Right Honourable Elish Angiolini QC, our newest Patron, who, as Lord Advocate of Scotland led the prosecution at the trial of Moira’s killer, has been awarded a DBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List.  We are absolutely delighted for Dame Elish and send her our warmest congratulations on this much-deserved honour.

Last week Elish, standing down from her role as Lord Advocate, said that she was “truly touched” by the courage of Moira’s family and she wanted to contribute and support The Moira Fund.   We are so pleased that Elish has joined Patrons Elaine C Smith and Angela Rippon OBE, and that we now have the wonderful support of three most genuine, caring and talented individuals.

We are all thrilled that Angela Rippon has also agreed to be Patron of the Moira Fund.

“Hu and Beatrice Jones are two very special people. It takes great courage and a deep reservoir of humanity to be able to turn a personal tragedy into a mission to help and support others. The death of their daughter Moira was devastating. But through The Moira Fund they hope to bring genuine support and comfort to other bereaved families. It is a great privilege for me to be Patron of their charity and to know that the spirit of Moira Jones will live on through the goodness and love of her parents.”
