Mum annihilated by grief after her little boy dies in unsafe swimming pool

A loving and kind boy died in a inherently unsafe swimming pool at a rural holiday park on the edge of the Lake District, a court has heard.

A CCTV system was linked to screens in an office 350m away but on the day of Luca’s death, the system was not even active. No monitors were on and CCTV hadn’t been recording for a week, meaning the family still do not know the circumstances of how the youngster came into trouble. A pool alarm was so quiet it could barely be heard in the nearest building and not at all in the office.

Mum's heartbreak at loss of little Luca In a victim’s personal statement, Luca’s mum Amanda Collins described the pain and heartbreak she has suffered as a result of the loss of her son. Amanda said she often feels “like I don’t want to go on” and that she thinks of Luca late at night and as soon as she wakes up. The mother said she suffers with PTSD along with panic and anxiety attacks and memory loss as well as flashbacks and night terrors.

“We have to live without him being with us on birthdays and Christmases and holidays. We have to live without seeing him grow up and live with the fact I will never be a grandmother to his children. I have to live without his wonderful drawings he would bring home from school and worst of all I have to live without Luca.”
