Mum of tragic schoolgirl who died from asthma attack sets up bereavement support group

The mum of a schoolgirl who died from an asthma attack has set up a bereavement support group after admitting losing her daughter was the "hardest thing she has ever gone through".

Katy Bulpitt tragically died following the sudden and fatal episode on November 2, 2021, leaving behind her devastated mum, Tracy, 42, and five siblings. The Our Lady's High School pupil had been suffering from chronic and severe asthma before her untimely death at home in Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire.

Seven days after Katy's passing, Tracy was hit with double heartache after her dad Robert Spiers died aged 71. Their deaths left the mum-of-six struggling to cope with her grief and she found no way to receive support.
