Jill Saward: Family announce funeral plans

The funeral of sexual violence campaigner Jill Saward will take place next week at Lichfield Cathedral, her family have announced.

Ms Saward became the first victim to waive her anonymity after she was sexually assaulted at her father's vicarage in Ealing, West London in 1986.

Mourners who wish to make a statement against sexual violence are being invited to wear purple at the service in memory of the 51-year-old next Tuesday.

A statement released by the family invited "all those who knew and loved Jill" to pay their respects.
