Oscar-winning Hollywood star Kate Winslet has said she was “absolutely destroyed” by the plight of a Tillicoultry family caring for a severely disabled teenager.
Last month the actress donated £17,000 to pay for rising energy costs after mum Carolynne Hunter spoke publicly about her fears she would have to put her child into care if she couldn’t keep up with the bills.
Carolynne’s youngest child Freya, 13, has severe complex health problems and disabilities, is non-verbal and blind and requires full-time oxygen and at-home nursing care.
