A fundraiser is being held in memory of a “fun and bubbly” teenager who died after a car crash last year.

Molly Stone died last November aged just 19 after a car crashed into a derelict building near Ledbury.

Now a family fun day is being organised to raise funds for two charities that have been supporting her family.

Molly’s sister Abbie Brooks said: “It’s been a really difficult time for us as a family. Losing Molly has left a really big hole in all of our lives.

"She was such a fun, bubbly, colourful person, and keeping her memory alive is something she’d want us to do.

"Keeping busy has been a great distraction from the heartache we’re feeling, and if there’s anything we can take from this, it’s highlighting the importance of road safety.

"Creating a day for everyone to enjoy is something we feel really passionate about, we want this event to reflect the type of person Molly was, and we hope anyone that knows us as a family, knew Molly, or wants to come along to show their support will do so.”

The event is taking place on August 27 between 12pm and 5pm at the Verzon House Hotel.

It will feature live music and food and drink including a barbecue, an ice cream stand, Divine Donuts and a cocktail bar.

There will be plenty to keep children entertained including face painting, bouncy castles, a police car, a fire engine, a tractor, archery and animal petting.

Tickets, priced at £5, are available now by calling 01531 670381. Limited tickets will also be sold on the day.

“I’ve been very lucky to have the support and generosity of Kate Chase and the staff at Verzon House since I started planning this event, and I’m really grateful to them for making this a possibility," said Abbie.

“Proceeds will be split between two charities, Road Peace, who work closely with West Mercia Police and the ELY memorial fund, both local charities who have been a huge support to us as a family, and continue to fight against road crime.”
