Soham needs space to grieve, says vicar

The community of Soham now needs to be left to grieve in peace over the murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, the town’s vicar said today.

The town could only rebuild itself away from the attention of the wider public, said the Rev Tim Alban Jones told worshippers at the weekly Holy Communion service at St Andrew’s Church, at which the two schoolgirls were remembered.
