Although Katie lived in Spilsby, she had worked in Skegness as a carer and knew a lot of people. Her dad is also well known in the area, in particular for his charity bike rides to London to Brighton.

"Katie was such a kind and loving lady,” explained Heather. “Myself and her dad are taking care of her beloved son Robbie and doing everything humanly possible to support him after the loss of his mum.”

Katie was born on the March 22, 1997, and grew up in Spilsby. She attended Great Steeping primary and King Edward 6th Academy.

“She touched so many people’s life in such a short time and was a fantastic mum and friend to many people in Spilsby,” said Heather.

“It’s fair to say Robbie was Katie’s world and she would do anything for her little boy.

"She was such a kind and loving lady, always finding time to support her family, friends and service users, where she worked as a home carer.

"We want to be able to give Katie the farewell she deserves.”
