Peckham: Tony Blair was today leading tributes to schoolboy Damilola Taylor on the first anniversary of the 10-year-old's murder.

The Prime Minister will attend a memorial service at St Luke's Church in Peckham, south London, conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr George Carey.

Mr Blair will then hold private talks with Damilola's parents Richard and Gloria before re-dedicating a Peckham youth centre in their son's memory.

Nigerian-born Damilola was stabbed to death as he walked home in Peckham after attending an after-school computer class.
