A family left “shattered into pieces” have a launched fundraiser for their daughter who died after a crash in Bexleyheath.  

Ada Bicakci and her five-year-old brother were found injured after being hit by a bus in Watling Street at 9.05am on August 3.

The siblings, who were with a family member at the time, were taken to hospital for treatment.

The nine-year-old died in hospital on the afternoon of August 5 and her brother was only taken there as a precaution.

A GoFundMe page has since been launched to provide support to those who helped the nine-year-old during the incident.

The “keen” gymnast and swimmer, who was a Turkish and British national, also had her organs donated to help six other kids.

The page from the Bicakci family reads: “We have been hit and shattered into pieces, One became six, living in new places.

“Thanks are not enough to show our gratitude. We’ll honor Ada with acts of magnitude.

“The funds will support those who helped us through, from emergency services to our hospital too.

“We lost count of who soaked us in love.”

The page, which was created on August 14, has since raised £5,685 raised with an initial target of £2,500.

A funeral will also be held which will start at the Bicakci family home at 10.30am on August 19.

This will be followed by a service which will take place at Paul’s Garden at 11.30am.

Mourners will then be able to pay their respects at an "open mic" at the Chapel in Green Acres Kemnal Park, Sidcup at 12.30pm.

Tributes have also since been paid to Ada with flowers and handwritten notes left at the scene of the crash.

One of the notes read: “RIP little princess, fly with the angels. Gone too soon. Thinking of you all at this emotional time.”

Another one said: “Rest in Peace forever young princess. Sleep with the angels.”

The male driver of the bus was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury through dangerous driving and drug-driving.

He has been bailed to a date in early November pending further enquiries.
