Plea to help bring tragic woman home

The family of a woman who fell to her death in Ibiza are now trying to get her home "where she belongs."

Robyn-Eve Maines, from Wallasey, died after falling from a balcony at the four star Rosamar Hotel in San Antonio, Ibiza. The 24-year-old had been enjoying a holiday with her partner and friends before tragedy struck around 9am on Sunday, September 24.

In a heart-breaking tribute to the law graduate, her mum Clare Maines and brother Cam Maines said "she will forever be loved and remembered for the fantastic person she is." A GoFundMe page has now been set up by her aunty, to help arrange transport of her nieces body back into the country and cover funeral costs.

In a statement on the fundraising page, Robyn-Eve's aunty, Diane Morrisey, described her niece as "beautiful inside and out", Diane said she had "everything to live for." The goal is to raise £10,000 with more than £1,500 currently donated.

Diane Morrisey said: "After studying Law she graduated from University and went to work in a Solicitors where she made lots more friends.

"Robyn went on holiday to Ibiza with her partner and friends on 22nd September and on 25th September her mum Clare received a devastating phone call from the British consulate informing her of Robyn's death. To say the family are devastated is an understatement. All we know at present is that Robyn had fallen 30ft from her balcony with police investigations still ongoing.

"We understand times are very difficult for a lot of people right now but we are asking for help to get Robyn back home to her family where she belongs. If anyone can please donate however big or small it will be really appreciated and if everyone can share our post we would be truly grateful."

Hundreds of people have taken to social media to share their condolences and tributes to Robyn-Eve. Another tribute, from Toni Goodwin reads: "Oh Robyn-Eve Maines I can’t even begin to say how devastated I am with this sad news! I am truly heartbroken.

"You were one of my best friends this doesn’t seem real at all. You will be so so missed by so many and I can’t even imagine how you’re family are feeling. You’ll always have a special place in my heart Love you always fly high angel."

Victoria Carr said: "Robyn-Eve Maines was a firecracker, beautiful inside and out and so much fun to be around. Her family and friends are in my thoughts at this sad time."
