Commemorative tree planted in memory of Redditch man
A commemorative apple tree was planted near Woodrow Library in memory of Sebastian Daelman, who was fatally stabbed in April. His family said the tree reflects his generosity and desire to help others. Redditch Borough Council donated and helped plant the tree. A 17-year-old has been charged with his murder, and a GoFundMe campaign raised £3,195 toward funeral costs, with the service held on June 26 at Redditch Crematorium.
