Today, the Parole Board announced a recommendation that my daughter’s killer, Ian Simms, be moved to open conditions within 28 days. The announcement has left me devastated – but even more determined that Helen’s Law must succeed to save other families from being put through this torture. I will be presenting my petition for Helen’s Law to Downing Street tomorrow at 2pm. If you would like to come to the gates to show your support as I complete the handover, please do so. I have been humbled, touched and overwhelmed at the number of people who have taken the trouble to sign my petition and send messages of support and comfort. We are more grateful than you will ever know. Please share this update. If you know anyone else who would like to support me, and would like their signature to count, please could they sign before 1pm tomorrow. I promise to keep you updated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Marie McCourt
