Girl, 2, dies after falling into pond on Christmas Day

Isobel's family launched a fundraiser that raised over £18,000 to cover funeral and counseling costs while preparing for her unborn sibling's arrival.

  • A two-year-old girl in Doncaster was found in a garden pond after wandering from family celebrations, and Isobel died following the fall at the Doncaster home.
  • The pond was a temporary fixture in the garden after the family recently moved while renovating their 'forever home' in Doncaster, and the temporary fence was bypassed by Isobel.
  • Relatives immediately began CPR and called emergency services, and paramedics took the toddler to hospital where she was pronounced dead shortly after.
  • Abigail Maxwell launched a GoFundMe to cover funeral costs, raising over 18,000 from over 700 donations, supporting Tamara and Aaron, who are expecting a baby in July next year.
  • Loved ones called for community help to fund a memorial fairy garden, with Abigail Maxwell stating `I just really want to do everything I can to take any pressure off for them with regards to funeral costs, counselling, being out of work etc`.
