It's so sad she's gone.

Rachael's son, Ben Heyhoe Flint, paid tribute to her, external "achievements in government, cricket, football, charity and community on which she had such a profound influence.

"She tackled all of the above at full speed, showing us how grace, a cheeky sense of humour - and tenacity - can break glass ceilings.

"We hope that we all can continue the legacy that she leaves behind.”
