Last summer, life changed forever for the family and friends of 17-year-old Riley Ellis from Weymouth who took his own life.

This week, the popular and talented teenager is being remembered with a special concert called 'Rock for Riley' at Weymouth College, where he was studying music.

Riley, who played guitar, was in a band called 'The Haze' who will be headlining the concert.

Its lead singer, 19-year-old Llewen Matthews, was best friends with Riley and has been speaking to our reporter Charlotte Foot.
