The family of Winnie Campbell, who sadly died on Monday (14 February), have paid tribute to their ‘beautiful baby girl’.
The one-year-old died in hospital two days after a collision, which took place on the A518 New Trench Road in Newport on Saturday 12 February.
The family said: “Winnie was always such a happy baby girl, who loved to dance, jump and play. Without her our family now has a huge hole that will never again be filled, and she will be missed by all who had the pleasure to love her.
“She is loved so much, and will always be our beautiful baby girl. We respectfully request that we are allowed to grieve in private as a family at this difficult time.”
Officers continue to appeal for witnesses following the collision, which also claimed the life of a woman in her 40s who was pounced dead at the scene. The collision involved a blue Mini and a grey Fiat 500X – both Winnie and the woman were travelling in separate vehicles.
Officers are asking anyone who was travelling on the A518 New Trench Road at the time who witnessed the incident or has dash-cam footage to get in touch. Anyone with information or footage is asked to visit https://orlo.uk/2FuTB or call 101 quoting incident number 523i of 12 February, 2022.
