A mum has spoken of her sadness after a tree in memory of her four-year-old son was stolen from church grounds in Openshaw. The 'tree of light and hope' was planted in the grounds of St Clements Church on Ashton Old Road in 2018, a year after Max Rimmer-Chambers tragically died.
The four-year-old passed away in May 2017 when a fireplace surround fell on him. An inquest into his death held the following April heard how he was reaching for a pack of mints at his grandfather’s house when the surround came away from the wall and left him trapped.
The tree, which was lit up in fairy lights, acted as a place of remembrance for the youngster as well as a 'place of hope' for people in the community to visit. BLACK FRIDAY OFFER: Get three months of MEN Premium for FREE with our amazing Black Friday deal.
