The funeral of a Monmouthshire teenager killed on a Herefordshire road will take place tomorrow (Thursday 16th September).

Jack McKenzie died on Friday 3rd September after the car he was a passenger in was involved in a collision with a tractor and another car on the B4348 near Kingstone.

The 18-year-old was a former student of Monmouth Comprehensive School.

Jack's family is asking for donations to be made in his name to the road safety charity Brake.

The charity's slogan is 'Road crashes are not road accidents. They are preventable and must be stopped'.

A Brake spokesperson said: "Brake exists to stop the six deaths and 65 serious injuries that happen on UK roads every day and to care for families bereaved and seriously injured in road crashes.

"Brake produces educational literature, runs community training programmes and events including Road Safety Week, which runs from 22nd to 28th November.

"Brake's Fleet Safety Forum provides up-to-date fleet safety resources for fleet managers and BrakeCare, Brake's support division, cares for road crash victims through a helpline, face to face support and other services."
