Friends say she remains in hospital with spinal fractures and a broken arm
Friends of the woman who fell through Blackpool Central Pier on Tuesday have launched a GoFundMe for her – as the council investigates how it happened.
A family friend has since set up a GoFundMe to raise support for the woman and her family. Dr Steve Taylor, describing himself as a “close family friend, GP and church leader”, set up the fundraiser yesterday. With 51 donors, it has already reached £1,095 of its £2,000 target. In an update to the GoFundMe, Taylor added that she will be “operated on today for spinal fractures and a broken arm”.
