Emotional lantern tribute planned for Doncaster murder victim Amy Stringfellow

Amy, 26, a mum of one, died at a house in Dryden Road, Balby last Friday. A 45-year-old man, Terence ‘Tez’ Papworth of the same address, has appeared in court charged with her murder.

Now family and friends have asked people across Doncaster to release biodegrable sky lanterns for Amy this weekend.

A post on Facebook said: “Let’s light up the sky for our angel. “We will be letting lanterns off on Saturday night at 9pm for Amy Stringfellow.

“If everybody can let them off from their own houses due to Covid – let's light the whole sky up from everywhere.”

“If you can all buy biodegradable ones please.”

A vigil, organised by Women’s Lives Matter, will also be held on Saturday, from 3pm in Elmfield Park.
