Garden play equipment fundraiser for Killearn youngster swings into action

The mum of a 12-year-old girl with Down’s syndrome has issued a call for help to replace her much-loved play equipment in the garden of her home.

Killearn mum Chrissy Taylor has given up her job as a nurse to care for 12-year-old Bronte Dargue and says she has exhausted traditional avenues of financial support to replace the crumbling equipment - with no access to private funding available.

It has led her to launch an online fundraiser in an attempt to restore Bronte’s favourite play equipment - including a swing and trampoline - as well as erecting a fence and gate in the garden to ensure that Bronte is kept safe.
