Controversial campaigner Camila Batmanghelidjh had so little money when she died that the amounts left to her loved ones will not be fulfilled.
She named 14 children and young people who she said should be given 'fingerless gloves and a scarf, as well as a £200 voucher so they could buy something they liked'. Under probate laws, because her bequests amounted to more than the money she left, they have to be scaled down. She also made suggestions for individuals who should receive her 'favourite tea pot', 'favourite desk', art materials, 'and a big painting in my bedroom'.
She also won the backing of former Prime Minister David Cameron and then London Mayor Boris Johnson and reportedly was able to secure more than £42 million of taxpayers' cash through government funding. She wrote: 'I've had an absolutely brilliant life made happy because of the love of my family and the opportunity to serve some amazing children and young people, through the charities I founded.
She appointed brother Babak and former Kids Company clinical director Michael Kerman who she describes as 'her closest friend' as 'executors and trustees' to 'decide together how my wealth should be distributed'. 'There are four people who have been greatly supportive of my mother when she was alive. I would like them or their offspring to receive 5K each from the potential sale of my flat.'
