Sharron Liddle has been a David Cassidy fan since the 1970s and is the driving force behind a happy trail of memorials around London which pay tribute to his legacy.

Sharron runs the David Cassidy Group of Great Britain on Facebook, which strives to ensure his name and contribution to the musical and cultural fabric of the UK is never forgotten.

Their first tribute was a plaque outside the stage door at the Phoenix Theatre where he starred in Willy Russell’s Blood Brothers. It was unveiled by radio presenter, Mike Read in September 2018. Other tributes at the time included a star in the Hall of Fame at the Bristol Hippodrome where David starred in Blood Brothers with Clodagh Rogers.

In our conversation, Sharron talks about the legacy trail which has evolved which also includes a plaque within the Phoenix Garden opposite the theatre which carries the symbolic words “Dreams, Wishes and Happy Trails”, a Make a Wish Charity virtual wall in his memory, a bench plaque in Hammersmith Park, and a tribute of remembrance at St Giles Church next to the Phoenix.

Other memorials have been established at Wembley’s Empire Pool (now Arena) where David sold out a record-breaking 6 shows in 3 days in 1973; Heathrow Airport on the site of what was the Queen’s Building which fans packed onto when he arrived, or left, the UK in the 1970s. Outside of London there are memorials at Nottingham Concert Hall and on the iconic Sheffield Heart of Steel.
