Fundraiser started for Bristol woman ‘who touched so many lives’

Beautiful, bright and caring. That’s how Maisie Swift described her best friend Amanda Rogers, who died earlier this month. The 25-year-old had been battling mental health problems and drug addiction and her family and friends have been left in shock at her sudden death.

Now Maisie is organising a GoFundMe page to help Amanda’s family with funeral costs. She said she and Amanda, from Bradley Stoke, had grown up together and were always at each other’s homes. Maisie said: “We were inseparable. We’ve still got her bed made here at our house.”

She said that Amanda had been making plans for the future and had wanted to travel to Thailand to teach children. Maisie said: “She worked in cyber security, she was so smart and so clever.”
