Paramedics, emergency service workers and the family of a young woman have joined forces to hold a service following the death of a paramedic in a crash.

Alice Clark died after the ambulance she was in was involved in a crash with a cement lorry on the A21 Sevenoaks bypass this month.

Alice, 21, who had only joined South East Coast Ambulance Service (Secamb) in November, died in the accident near Tonbridge and her devastated parents paid tribute to their “beautiful, kind” daughter, the next day on Thursday, January 6.

This week, a service was held to remember Alice from Newington, near Sittingbourne, where flowers were laid.

On social media, a post from Secamb this morning said: “Yesterday #SECAmb crews from Paddock Wood and Critical Care paramedics joined with her family and colleagues from Kent Police, Kent Fire and Rescue Service, London Ambulance Service NHS Trust and Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex in a small service to remember Alice and lay flowers at the scene.”

Those at the service included Secamb staff who had attended the crash.

It is the latest show of support for Alice's family.

Yasmin Bekir, a friend of the former pupil of Medway-based Rainham Mark Grammar School, has set up a Gofundme page to raise money to help Alice's family. Yasmin and Alice had studied at the University of Greenwich together.

It has already raised more than £11,000.

Other friends and colleagues and the Health Secretary have also paid tribute to Alice.

Following her death, her parents paid an emotional tribute to her, saying: “Alice was so excited to qualify as a paramedic and looked forward to every shift.

"She was a beautiful, kind, fun-loving daughter, sister and grand-daughter. She loved to travel and anyone who met her loved her.

"She will be missed more than words can say by family and friends."

Last week, Secamb released a message from Alice's parents, saying they have been "overwhelmed, honoured and comforted" by the support they have received.
