A teenager who died after falling off scaffolding while working at a Wanstead home will be remembered at a memorial service this month.

16-year-old Alfie Perrin from Enfield died on November 14 last year after falling from scaffolding at a two-storey house in Camden Road.

He was treated at the scene by paramedics before being airlifted to the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, but later died of head injuries.

The young man's death will be among those commemorated at a service held by Waltham Forest Trades Council to remember the lives of people killed at work.

The service, due to be held at Thames Water's Water Treatment Works in Coppermill Lane, Waltham Forest on Sunday, April 28 at 11.30am, is also part of the Trades Council's campaign for safer work conditions.

Trade union representatives and members and relatives of victims are encouraged to attend the service.

An inquest was opened and adjourned in the days after Mr Perrin died. Police treated the death as unexplained.
