This July will mark the 2 year anniversary since Christopher's death. 2 years since this young boy was pushed into a river and killed. How long will his family have to wait for justice? Will they have to wait 20+ years like Stephen's family? Share Christopher's story NOW

Dear BBC, Lets talk about Christopher, A 13 year old black child, who was pushed into a river and drowned by his peers. Within 24 hours of his death, CPS ruled it non suspicious and closed the case despite sufficient evidence to prosecute.

Christopher was only 13 when we lost him... Although there's sufficient evidence to prosecute those who pushed him into a river, killing him, the CPS chose not to because it's not in 'the public interest'. 😠 When will a young Black boy's justice be in the 'public interest'? 🤔

In the UK today, an estimated five children in every classroom has a mental health problem. A quarter of 17-year-old girls have self-harmed in the last year, while suicide remains the single biggest killer of boys and young men. We’re leading a movement to make things better.
