A Bristol teenager devastated by the tragic death of his beloved sister on Christmas Day has dedicated this year's festive season to raising money for national cancer charity Macmillan once again.
15-year-old Jake Skinner from Downend lost his sister Stacie to anaphylactic shock in 2015 and has spent every year since, lighting up his family's home after learning how much she loved decorating her work desk this time of year.
Now, in memory of his nan, who he lost to spleen cancer last year, he has decided to jointly celebrate his loved ones by raising money to help save the lives of those affected by the disease. He said: “It means a lot to have so many followers supporting us each year and you get a few familiar faces who contribute towards fundraising. Seeing people stop to admire the lights is a great feeling.”
