21yo Aussie Falls to His Death in London

The family has hired a private investigator, and an online fundraiser has raised almost $60,000 to help bring his body home.

  • The London Coroner has opened an inquest into the death of Fletcher Beasley, 21, who died on June 25 after falling from the Victoria Embankment in central London.
  • Beasley, a Queensland University of Technology law student and graduate of The Brisbane Boys College, was with his girlfriend and friends in the riverside area when the incident occurred.
  • Parents Matt and Katrina Beasley established the Fletcher Beasley Fund in their son's memory, which has raised more than $72,500 to support the investigation and bring him home.
  • Seeking "justice" and answers regarding the incident, the family stated the fund will also provide assistance to friends who were present in London at the time of his death.
  • Described by friends and family as "deeply generous, selfless and community-minded," the Brisbane man's loss leaves an immeasurable absence for all who knew him, according to his parents.
