THE FUNERAL of a schoolboy who died in a collision in the New Forest is due to take place today.

Friends and family of Aarron Keeping are gathering at All Saints Church in Thorney Hill to say goodbye to the sports-mad 12-year-old.

Aarron died when he was hit by a car at a road junction in Bransgore on September 30.

Since then his family have told how the Ringwood School student was known as a promising cricket player who loved playing sports.

Donations for Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance or Bransgore Community Responders can be sent or taken to Smith and Sons, Oaktree Parade, Ringwood Road, Bransgore.
