Brave Helen’s legacy for kids
PEAKY Blinders and Harry Potter star Helen McCrory, whose death at the age of 52 shocked fans last week, will leave an inspiring legacy.
An arts charity has set up an award to help disadvantaged children achieve their dreams in her memory.
‘Helen was a huge believer in that the arts should be accessible to every child,’ says Debbi Clark, chief executive of HVH Arts in North London, of which the actress was patron.
The McCrory Award will support gifted children from disadvantaged families. It will be funded by donations the charity receives in tribute.
