Hillsborough Family Support Group

The Hillsborough Family Support Group was founded in May 1989 by a majority of the families who lost loved ones in the Football Disaster at Hillsborough Stadium Sheffield, England on the 15th April 1989. A few families met whilst travelling to and from the Lord Justice Taylor Inquiry, and decided that we should contact every next of kin and form a group. We held our first meeting at the Vernon Sangster Sports Centre, Liverpool. By July of the same year, we had democratically elected a committee and held our first committee meeting.

As our logo implies, the bereaved families came together to help and support each other throughout the aftermath. It became very clear at an early stage that a strong group was needed if a campaign to bring out the truth and ensure justice was to succeed. These pages will help you realise the amount of work the HFSG has done in their search for justice and how hard we had to fight against insurmountable odds.

Yours truly

ALL Profits from sales to the

Hillsborough Family Support Group

The Merseybeats proudly announce that they are releasing a 3-track CDfor the 25th Anniversary of the 96 fans who tragically lost their lives in 1989. The idea of re-issuing 'This Is Merseybeat' transpired after it was played on BBC Radio Merseyside, by radio presenter Frankie Connor.  Frankie was inundated with requests to play it again, listeners asking where they could purchase the recording. 

Frankie contacted Tony Crane who decided to re-release it, with all profit donated to HFSG.

 

The CD produced by Tony Crane, co-founder of The Merseybeats personally guarantees that ALL profits will be donated to the HFSG. 

Billy Kinsley co-founder of The Merseybeats was delighted with the idea. 

Bob Packham, Lou Rosenthal. Adrian Crane and Chris Finley have also endorsed the idea. 

"This is Merseybeat" was a hit for The Merseybeats in the 1980's , it's content appropriate to Liverpool.
