Thousands of pounds have been raised in memory of tragic Scots teenager Lennix Hughes after she passed away suddenly in Dundee at the weekend. The 16-year-old was rushed to Ninewells Hospital in the early hours of Saturday, March 4, after falling ill at a property in the Dudhope Gardens area of the city.
Despite the best efforts of medics, the 16-year-old was pronounced dead a short time later. A police investigation into the circumstances of her death, which is being treated as ‘unexplained’, remains ongoing.
A GoFundMe page was launched on Monday morning by a family friend with more than £8500 raised within hours of it going live. Family friend Gill Young urged people to donate what they could in memory of the “loving, kind, funny bairn who will be missed by all”.
