A grieving father says more than £25,000 in donations that followed the tragic death of his five-month-old son will be split between three charities.
The money will be shared between two air ambulance trusts and road safety charity Brake.
Chris Thorold is also setting up the Louis Thorold Foundation in memory of his son: it will campaign to bring about major safety improvements on our roads.
The foundation has three family members as trustees.
It will be headed by Mr Thorold, who describes himself as a “leader within technology and aerospace with over 15 years of experience in senior finance & strategy roles”.
A village fell silent today for the funeral of a five-month-old baby boy killed when a van left the A10 at Waterbeach and ploughed into his pram.
Louis Thorold died at the scene and his mother, Rachel, 36, who remains in hospital, was seriously injured.
The cortege drove around the village green and then through Horningsea and into Cambridge.
Rachael Thorold, 36, was pushing her five-month-old son Louis in his pram along a pavement beside the A10 in Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire when they were hit by a van. This photo of Ms Thorold holding her smiling son was taken just hours before the collision last month
