The family of Jessica Baker, a 15-year-old who tragically lost her life in a road traffic collision on the M53 in Wirral, have extended their heartfelt thanks to everyone for their kind comments and offers of support since the tragic accident.
Jessica, a talented and dedicated climber, had been competing across the UK for the past seven years, representing both the North West and Wales. She was passionate about all sports but had a particular love for indoor and outdoor climbing. She had chosen GCSE PE as one of her subjects and was planning to pursue a career in sport. Later this year, she was due to begin her coaching qualifications to work towards this goal.
