A mum from Nottingham has been left 'overwhelmed' after a fundraiser was set up to allow her to go to Germany to watch her gymnast daughter compete. Cara Davies' brother set up a GoFundMe page in order to raise money to pay for Cara to go to the European Gymnastics Championships in Munich.
Cara's 14 year old daughter Grace Davies is competing for Great Britain in the Championships in August. Grace started gymnastics when she was six and now competes on various apparatus including bars, beam, vault and floor.
The gymnast has been selected to represent Great Britain in Germany but her mum was not able to afford to travel with her. Grace had already competed at two international competitions without her mum, and Cara didn't want to miss out again.
