Capril, are you cape-able? Originally Capril was a collaboration of listeners and the three hosts of the Triple M radio show Get This, which was Tony Martin, Ed Kavalee and Richard Marsland. Listeners, guests and hosts were encouraged to wear capes during everyday activities throughout April and send in photos as proof. Since the axing of this radio program Capril (Cape April) has become much more than just some silly fun. The beloved Richard Marsland passed away due to severe depression, and in honour of his memory, his fans, loved ones and colleagues have come together each year since to remember him in a special way. Capril has taken on a life of its own; it is now about raising awareness of depression in society.Richard’s death was a great shock that became amplified throughout the entertainment industry- from his old work colleagues to the many listeners that had him as a part of their every day lives for years. We were all devestated. Since Richard’s death, we have thought long and hard, and decided that the best way to honour his memory and draw attention to the awful disease that took him from us was to have Capril continue each year as an event that helps to raise awareness of depression.
