Photos pay tribute to Doncaster victims of Covid as UK death toll tops 100,000

The UK passed a tragic milestone this week – as the number of deaths due to Covid 19 topped the 100,000 mark.

But that number is not just a statistic – those victims of the disease were real people with real lives and their deaths left loved ones who have had to grieve their loss.

Official figures yesterday said Doncaster had seen 656 deaths with the coronavirus.

We have put together a picture gallery in tribute to some of those we have lost.

If you lost a loved one to Covid in Doncaster and would like them to be added to the gallery, email your picture together with your loved one’s name, district of Doncaster where they lived, and a 25 word biography to [email protected]. Mark the subject box as ‘Covid tribute’.

In these confusing and worrying times, local journalism is more vital than ever. Thanks to everyone who helps us ask the questions that matter by taking out a subscription or buying a paper. We stand together. Nancy Fielder, editor.
