Tragedy as ‘much-loved’ mum-of-three, 27, dies in mysterious circumstances leaving family ‘heartbroken’
A “MUCH-loved” mum-of-three, aged 27, died in mysterious circumstances leaving her family “heartbroken”.
Bethany Wooldridge, a former West Midlands Police officer and West Midlands Ambulance Service call handler, died on December 17, leaving behind three children.
Her kids, Tommy, aged four, Lylah, aged seven; and Alyssia, aged 10, and husband Josh Wooldridge were “heartbroken” and “devastated” by the loss of Beth, who was known to friends as Bee.
She had been found collapsed at home, with her death remaining “unexplained”.
An inquest into the circumstances surrounding her death has been opened and adjourned.
The former cop had only stepped down from service with West Midlands Police in January.
Beth and her family had also only just moved to their dream home in Worfield, near Bridgnorth in Shropshire.
An appeal has been set up by her sister Tory to help the family cope with the devastating news which came just weeks before Christmas.
The fundraiser reads: “Beth was the absolute best thing in our lives and we all absolutely adored her.
“Her loving, caring, thoughtful nature will never be forgotten”.
“Everything Beth wanted she achieved.”
More than £2,500 has already been raised from 147 donations against a target of £4,000.
Tory’s tribute added: “She was so so fierce when it came to her children and husband, and would protect those she loved the most more than anything.
“She had such a beautiful soul, and we were all so proud of her.
“As a family we are broken, and will continue Beth’s memory on forever.
“Words will never describe the hole she has left in our hearts that can never be filled.”
Tory continued: “It being such a devastating time, and so close to Christmas, as a family we are looking to raise funds, for her husband Joshua and their three beautiful children, to go towards funeral costs and for them as a family to use as they see fit during this life-changing and heartbreaking time.”
