SCORES of people are expected to attend the latest fund-raising drive in memory of a Brierley teenager who died hours after singing 'Happy Birthday' to her mum.

Leah Bella Pearson, 18, of Park Avenue, discovered she had a brain tumour in 2013 after suffering from migraines.

She was put on a six-week course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy at Weston Park Hospital in Sheffield to shrink it ahead of an operation to remove it.

However, the budding actress died unexpectedly just two months later on her mother's birthday in June.
