To Seek – To Find – To Make Safe

Richard III’s remains will be re-interred in Leicester Cathedral in March 2015. In order to mark this remarkable event and to bring a contemporary relevance, the community of Desford are constructing a “Cascade and swath” of 5929 White York Roses. Each rose representing one of the 5929 instances of a citizens of Leicestershire who go missing ever year, the vast majority are young people. Each instance of a missing person is caused by a failure to protect often the most vulnerable in our society. As with the passion to seek, find and make safe King Richard, we pledge to seek, find and make safe those young people who for whatever reason go missing each year in Leicestershire.
