The partner of a man who died of a rare heart disorder will be performing a concert in his honour. 

Marcus Armstrong was 28 when he collapsed and died on May 26 last year. 

Lucy Hammond, his partner of five years, will be raising money for the charity - Cardiac Risk in the Young - with a piano concert dedicated to him in Lion Walks Church, Colchester on May 5.

Lucy said: "We wanted to play the concert in his honour, and it will be great if we can raise as much money as possible for the charity."

Marcus, a former pupil of Mayflower Primary School, Ramsey Primary School and Harwich School, was a talented golfer.
