FRIENDS of Tony Ballard, the Worcester teenager who drowned in the river Severn on Monday, are to gather to remember him tomorrow.

More than 600 people have now joined a tribute group to the 17-year-old on the social networking site Facebook.

And at least 80 of Tony's friends will be at tomorrow's gathering at the fountains on South Quay in Worcester to pay tribute to the vicar's son.

Organisers of the remembrance event have asked your Worcester News to publicise it.
