Cycle ride for victim's daughters
Collecting funds from motorists
Last month villagers raised £6,000 from passing motorists
Residents in a village where a man shot dead his wife and her sister at a barbecue are organising a charity event for one of the victim's children.

Stuart Horgan killed himself after being charged with murdering estranged wife Vicky and Emma Walton in Highmoor Cross, Oxfordshire, on 6 June.

Since the shooting, neighbours have been raising money to help support Mrs Horgan's two young daughters.

It is hoped the cycle ride from Hamburg to Highmoor will help raise £20,000.

The event is due to take place in August.

Last month, villagers raised £6,000 when they took to the streets with buckets, to collect cash from motorists passing through.

The fund will support Mrs Horgan's daughter, Jade, seven, and the child she had with Stuart Horgan, three-year-old Bobbie.
