THE partner of a woman who died following a collision in Yapton Road, Climping, has paid tribute to her, calling her "loving and loyal."

Mother-of-two Charlotte Hull, of Horsemere Green Lane, Climping, sustained fatal injuries when the silver Volkswagen she was driving left the road at about 5.35pm on Thursday, February 4.

Her fiancé Jake Pile said of the 29-year-old: "Charlotte was a loving and loyal mother to our two brilliant boys, Harry, eight, and Joey, ten.

"I think her friends and family will remember her as a real ray of light. She touched so many people's hearts and she will be greatly missed.

"I'm totally devastated that she has gone, no words can describe the way we feel to have lost her."
