The aunt of one of five teenagers killed in a car crash in Conisbrough has told us she wants to help other families who've lost a child or teenager.

Katey Bickerstaffe lost her niece Megan Storey, 16, who died along with her friends Jordanna Goodwin, Blake Cairns, Bartosz Bortniczak and Arpad Kore in an accident on the A630 in November 2014.

Katey is raising money for The Blake Cairns Foundation by running the London marathon next month so it can become an official charity, that will offer support to parents whose children have died or been seriously injured.

She said:

"I couldn't want to run for a better cause.

"Everything we've been through, the five families involved, I think as much money as we can raise so that we can support other families so they don't have the upset we did - or if it makes things a bit easier for them it would be a benefit."
