MEMBERS of the Wrexham community are generously donating to a fundraising page created after the 'devastating loss' of 9-year-old Freddie Pritchard.

Freddie, from Rossett, sadly passed away on September 14 on his way home from a family holiday with mum Cerys, dad Wayne and brother Charlie.

His auntie, Jessica Tomlinson, has since created a Go Fund Me page to support Freddie's family through their grief and to remove any financial worries as his funeral approaches. See the donation page here.

She said: "As you can imagine, this has been a devastating loss for our family and life will never be the same without his cheeky mischievous ways.

"My sister Cerys, brother-in-law Wayne and Freddie’s brother Charlie are struggling to cope with their loss so I am looking at any way I can help and don't want them to worry about the financial side of things with everything they are going through.

"All donations will help towards the cost of Freddie’s funeral and donations will also be given to the Cheshire ambulance service, the Countess of Chester hospital and to Alder Hey (Snow drop suite) for taking such good care of our beautiful Fred’s and supporting my sister and family through this difficult time."

So far, over £2,300 has been raised by the generous people of Wrexham, who have continued to express their heartfelt condolences to the family.
