A crowdfunding page set up to help the family of a young boy who tragically died in a collision in Totnes has almost reached its target of £12000. 

The three year old, named on the justgiving page as Reuben, sadly died just before Christmas on 20th December.

The fund currently stands at £11,938. 

Sima Cutting, who set up the page, said: “It’s with the heaviest heart & deepest sorrow that I write this. Those of you who know The Kitchen Table well will know Frankie. She’s been my right hand, friend & huge supporter of the business since I went solo two years ago. She’s an amazing chef & the hardest worker I’ve ever known. She was in an awful car crash on Wednesday 20th December & horrendously her son was killed in it. She’s with her in in-laws recovering from her injuries & will injuries. I would like to set up a fund in honour of little beautiful Reuben & to help the family in this time of need,”

Posting on The Kitchen Table’s Facebook page, Sima explained she didn’t want the family to worry about money: “These last few days have been very difficult. This is something I can practically do. The Totnes community have already shown such love & support for Frankie & her family. Thank you for all the texts & emails, hugs & phone calls. It’s so heartbreaking – Reuben was a glorious little dude. During this awful time of grief, I want the family not to have to worry about something as mundane as money. Frankie won’t be able to work for several months & I will miss her humour, creativity, energy & support. She is an amazing employee & lovely friend. I hope you can help me take this burden away so they can focus on healing,”

The incident happened on Plymouth Road. Two South Devon men were arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving. A 30-year-old man from Brixham and a 38-year-old man from Torquay were later released under investigation pending further enquiries.
