A total of £2,000 has been donated in memory of Ledbury horserider, Rachael Watkins, who died in January following a riding accident.

The money will be divided between the Air Ambulance Flight for Life Appeal and the neuro-surgical unit of Bristol's Frenchay Hospital.

Miss Watkins, 27, was flown by the County Air Ambulance to the specialist hospital, but died nine days after the accident at Tarrington.

Her funeral took place at Eastnor Church on January 20, and donations were requested instead of flowers.

Miss Watkins' father, Martin, of Plaisters End, Ledbury, expressed gratitude on behalf of the family to those who donated money to the two chosen causes.

He said: "Both the Flight for Life Appeal and Frenchay Hospital have told the family how grateful they are for this support."
