Mum's funeral request as girl who died in Carr Mill Dam laid to rest

Funeral details have been released for a schoolgirl who died while swimming with friends in Carr Mill Dam.

Teenager Erin died after getting into difficulty in water on Thursday, June 1. Officers entered the water in a bid to find the 15-year-old but despite the best efforts, the teenager died.

Sharing the details, Erin's mum Kirsty Madden asked if everyone attending can wear her favourite colour, blue, and to stray away from "traditional funeral" clothes. Instead she hopes that people will turn up and be "bright and comfortable."
