Angela Shellis, 45, was found dead in Prestatyn on Friday, October 24.

Angela's son Tristan Thomas Roberts, aged 18, of Coniston Drive, Prestatyn, has been charged with her murder. A GoFundMe was set up to support the family after the death of Angela, a Rhyl High School teaching assistant who was “loved by anyone who met her.”

‘The fund will support costs towards her funeral and memorial as well as raising money for mental health and autism charities.

‘That has now raised more than £6,000 in just over two weeks. The fund is continuing to run with it just short of the £6,500 target.
