A community has rallied around the grief-stricken family of a young motorcyclist who was "loved by everyone". Alex Thompson, 18, died in a crash in Brislington last week.
A GoFundMe page was set up by family member Tara Connor, and within four days donations have poured in to help the family. Keynsham teenager Alex was on his way to collect the keys for his new flat when he was involved in a collision near Hicks Gate roundabout on Thursday, June 22.
He has been described by his family as a kind-hearted young boy who “always wore a cheeky smile”. On the GoFundMePage, Tara said the funds raised would “give their loved son and brother a send off he deserves”.
