Family and friends of Manchester's first homeless tour guide gathered together at an emotional memorial ceremony to honour and pay tribute to his life. Much-loved Danny Collins passed away in July aged 66 after a long illness.
Danny, a beloved grandfather, spent years living on the city's streets and worked with Invisible Cities as a tour guide in Manchester city centre. The social enterprise trains people who have experienced homelessness to become walking tour guides of their own cities and also operates in Edinburgh, Glasgow, York, Cardiff and Liverpool.
Friends said Danny's tours taught his visitors about 'humanity and respect'.
