Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We are Tara, Claire, Sarah and Lyndsey and we run the largest Facebook fanpages that were set up to celebrate the work of the comedian Rik Mayall. Rik sadly passed away on the 9th of June 2014.
He was a true original, livewire, genius who touched many lives and generations of comedy fans all over the world. He was, and will continue to be, adored and missed by his family and his many fans forever.
This page was set up to raise money for Headway, a charity that works with people who have suffered head injuries and helps them on the road to recovery. As you all know, Rik suffered serious head injuries in 1998 so we thought this charity was an appropriate recipient to receive donations in Rik's memory.
We are doing this to celebrate Riks life and to ensure that he continues to bring joy to the lives of others, even after he has gone.
To find out more about the work of Headway, please visit their website:
