She recently held a quiz night at the Stamford Gate pub in Holywell and walked 10 miles round Llyn Brenig reservoir.

Her fundraising mission was inspired by a trip to London whereby she was shocked by the amount of homeless people on the streets. 

Emma's mum, Faye, said: "I genuinely thought the experience in London would be forgotten on our return but it wasn’t and the desire to do something and empathy has grown and grown. 

"The events are all her doing and her idea. We are so proud of her and her determination to make it happen."
