Jay Slater's mum has issued an emotional GoFundMe update as she appeals for more donations to help fund her teenager's funeral. Jay's mum, Debbie Duncan , wrote on the official GoFundMe fundraising page : "Hello everyone, thank you for all of your kindness, support and condolences in light of the tragic news that Jay’s body has been found. We are overwhelmed with grief and are so grateful for your support.
"The wonderful team from The Netherlands, Signi Zoekhondon, have remained in Spain all week and have continued to support us since Jay was found. They are due to fly home in the coming days and we are so appreciative of their dedication and support. "We would like to thank LBT Global for their support during this impossible time.
We are working with agencies to arrange Jay's repatriation to the UK and the remaining funds, along with any future donations will be used to help with this if needed and to pay for Jay’s funeral costs back home. We want to give our boy the send-off he deserves so please do continue to share and support our fundraiser however you can." Jay's body was tragically found on July 15 by members of a mountain rescue team from the Spanish Civil Guard after a gruelling four-week search.
The 19-year-old, from Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, went missing on the Spanish island on June 17. The teenager travelled to a remote Airbnb in the mountains on the north of the island with two men after a rave in Playa de las America. The teenager had posted a Snapchat vid.
