A fundraiser has been set up to cover the funeral cost of a much loved mum – as a murder investigation into her death continues.

Sarah Henshaw, aged 31, was found dead, on Monday, June 26 – after being missing for six days. Her body was found in a layby off the westbound carriageway of the A617, close to junction 29 of the M1.

Shannaide Colebourne, Sarah’s friend, has set up an online Go Fund Me Page to help cover funeral costs and support Sarah’s two young daughters.

The page raised over £1,000 in just a couple of hours.

Shannaide said: “Sarah was a lovely woman, friendly and very helpful in the community. She always worked as a carer and was much loved and known by many.

“She was the most amazing mother to her precious little girls. She always did everything for them and made sure they never went without.

“We are absolutely devastated by the news and can’t get it out out none of our heads.

“Setting up a fundraiser is the least we could do to try and help her family and daughters.”
