The young mum from Fox Hill had been battling ill health for months beforehand but rapidly went downhill following an operation in early October.

Now, a friend of the family, Rose Robinson, has launched a GoFundMe fundraiser to support her three children following her sudden loss.

Rose told The Star: “Her family are going through so much now.

“Jade lived altogether with her mum and her three boys. Her mum has been so strong these past weeks. I can only imagine how the house must be so full of memories.

“Jade was an absolutely amazing woman inside and out.

“I just wanted to do what I can to support them at such a difficult time and with Christmas on the way.”

A GoFundMe page was set up on Monday and has raised over £1,200 already.

The page by Rose reads: “Jade knew so many people, had loads of friends and this news has broken so many hearts. So now is the time to all come together.

“The funeral will be held at Grenoside Crematorium at 11am, November 8, 2024. Let’s help get some funds together to show this family how much Jade meant to us all.”
