Kelly, 37, and from Lea, said: “I have lost family members and know the feelings, emotions and sadness that comes following a bereavement. Having the right support can really make a difference.

“In 2014, my husband, two young boys and I did a sponsored walk to raise funds for CAYP and now we want to raise more and have gone a bit bigger!

“Any support by coming to the event, donations or raffle prizes or donations via Justgiving will be gratefully received.”
