Leicester: Elephant Man statue plan shelved as appeal falls short
By Greig WatsonBBC News
A statue of Joseph Merrick - The so-called Elephant Man - will not be put up in his hometown of Leicester after a campaign failed to raise enough money.
Local historian and Merrick biographer Jo Vigor-Mungovin started The Appeal in 2019, hoping to raise £130,000.
The Target was later lowered to £67,000 but only a fraction was collected, amid.
Mrs Vigor-Mungovin has now said " no-one is interested" and that she would back plans for a plaque instead.
Joseph MerrickMs Vigor-Mungovin said other statue appeals in Leicester had hit their targets but she had only managed to raise just under £3,000.
" I couldn't raise what I needed. I couldn't get companies interested, like they did with The , " She Said .
" It just got to The Point where I thought 'I can't do this any More - no-one is interested', and they are not and that is The simple fact. "
As well as writing an account of Merrick 's life, Mrs Vigor-Mungovin tracked down his unmarked grave in a London cemetery.
She Said : " He had this disability and there are no statues of someone with a disability.
" He was such an independent and inspirational young Man , who shows us, no matter what you are going through and who you are, you can achieve great things.
" And that is what should have been celebrated. "
Mrs Vigor-Mungovin is supporting plans for as a plaque near The Site of Merrick 's birth on Lee Street and for " Joseph's Garden" a green area in The East End of London close to where he lived and died.
Money raised for The Statue will go towards The Projects .
