Fundraising to support the family of a teenager in a critical condition after falling from her horse raised more than £3,000 in the first seven hours. Holly Martin from Coverack fell while horse riding on April 12. She was airlifted to Bristol Children s Hospital and has been there ever since, with a serious brain injury. Now the community of the Lizard Peninsula is rallying behind the 15-year-old Mullion School student and her family, to help with the expenses of travelling to and from the hospital and staying nearby, as her recovery could take up to a year. A JustGiving page set up by Emily Priddis at www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/comeonhollypop more than tripled its £1,000 target in hours and the total is still rising.
