The start of university life can be an expensive time, especially for those students from less privileged households. One mother, whose daughter was killed by a drug-driver shortly before graduation, is on a mission to help young people from such backgrounds achieve their dreams.
As she climbed the steps to collect a first-class law degree on behalf of 21-year-old Demi, her emotions swirled. "It was a day she had always looked forward to. While I was watching the other students I kept thinking in my head, 'she should be here to collect it herself'. At the point they gave me the certificate I broke because it was a bit too much for me."In January 2017 while at home in Birmingham, Liverpool Hope University undergraduate Demi packed her bags and left her room - a shrine to her idol, the rapper Drake - to head north.
Novlet, 50, who has two other children, remembers:"About an hour after the crash I got a phone call saying she had been involved in a car accident.
NICE.
😥😥😥
May Allah reward you for that caring heart to others
All credit goes to that wonderful woman.😀
Nice one. Peace be with you.
Thank you 🌷
