Good afternoon, these are the latest ECHO headlines.

'Kind and loving' mum died while working at The Range

A "caring" mum died while working a shift at work.

The worker, named locally as Tracy, died at work on Friday, November 11. It has been reported that her colleagues in The Range attempted to help her after she fell ill at around midday, in the Croft Retail Park store.

Emergency services attended the scene, in Bromborough, with police stopping shoppers from entering the car park using barriers. Despite the best efforts of emergency services and colleagues, Tracy died a short time later.

Tributes have poured in for the mum and nan, who has been described as a "loving" person. A tribute left on the GoFundMe page reads: "For those who are not aware, Tracy very sadly passed away unexpectedly while at work and unfortunately despite efforts of staff/ work colleagues and the emergency services nothing could be done for her."
