UPDATE : June 20 2009
Some supporters may have experienced a delay in receiving their wristbands, due to the overwhelming amount of emails that came in throughout April and May. This is being addressed and all orders will be processed as soon as possible. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause, but be assured all enquiries will be dealt with in order.
Some bands were returned from Scandinavia due to customs stickers being left off envelopes, so if you are in the region and have not received your band, this could have an impact. All will cleared in due course... sorry for your delay.
UPDATE : June 20 2009

The families of the HFSG would like to thank everyone who attended this years memorial service and for the hundreds of e-mails and messages that have come in over the past few weeks.
We have been overwhelmed by the level of support we have received from friends from all over the world including fans of many other football teams. Your words of kindness have been greatly appreciated.
UPDATE : April 15 2009
Wednesday 15th April 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of the disaster in Sheffield that cost 96 fellow fans their lives.
As is the custom, the Hillsborough Family Support Group will be
organising a memorial service to mark the occasion and to remember
those who died.
The service will be inter-denominational and will take place on the
Kop at Anfield. It will commence at 2.45pm, include a two minute
silence at 3.06pm and conclude at about 3.30pm with the singing of
'You'll Never Walk Alone'.
Tickets are not required and Liverpool Football Club extends an open
invitation to you to join the families, the Directors, officials and
players plus thousands of fellow football fans in our annual act of
remembrance.
This year is expected to be exceptionally well attended and we would
ask that you allow adequate time and plan to be in early. Entrances
will be open at 2.00pm, on both sides of the Kop. In the event of
the Kop being full for this occasion, extra seating will be provided
in the Lower Centenary Stand.
A candle will be lit to remember each individual life that was
extinguished prematurely and we rely upon the eternal flame of the
Hillsborough Memorial to burn some light into the darkest night.
For many, Wednesday April 15th will be just a normal working day and
there will be others who are unable to attend - despite wishing
otherwise but everyone is invited to join us in spirit and spare a
thought, say a private prayer or even light a candle in their minds.
