Story
Nyah James was such a beautiful vibrant young girl. Always had many friends and could bring a smile to anyone's face.
Unfortunately no one knew of the pain, hurt, anguish and torment that lay behind those pretty eyes
For months Nyah had been BULLIED!
For months she tried to keep it to herself.
On the evening of 5th of february, something happened that changed everything.
Life would never be the same again!
Nyah decided there was only one way out of this, one way to escape the bullies.
She TOOK HER OWN LIFE.
No one can begin to imagine how she was feeling. No one knows why she didn't speak to someone.
Every parents nightmare became reality on the morning of the the 6th of February when her mums Dominique & Suzanne found their baby, LIFELESS!
They tried and tried to bring her back but couldn't.
Our hearts break for them and everyone who loved Nyah.
She was far to young, loved and special for this.
The bullies left her feeling like she had no choice.
Her friends were all told in school, they crumbled. No one can prepare a child to grieve their best friend/girlfriend/classmate!
They would like somewhere they can be close to her. Somewhere she won't be forgotten.
A memorial would mean the world to them.

7 years agoPlease note, it seems gofundme doesn't like the editing of pages. This fundraising is no longer for a bench, (someone else sorted that) but now for another memorial that her friends & family see fitting.
