Campaign to help family of crash victims

Anyone wishing to assist the family that lost three children in a crash on Highway 17 on New Year’s Day, can now do so.

Former police officer, Chantelle Gorman, has set up a fund to help out the family, as well as the family of a 10-year-old boy, a friend of the family who is still in hospital.

He was airlifted and remains there with undisclosed, life-threatening injuries.

Brothers, 11-year-old Destiny Osagie and 10-year-old Flourish Osagie were declared deceased at the scene of the Highway 17 crash on New Year’s Day.

Their younger sister, 6-year-old Britney Osagie was transported to hospital and succumbed to her injuries.

Gorman says the funds will be used to help both families that hail from Chelmsford.
