The family of an 11-year-old girl with a rare genetic disorder are raising money to modify their home so she no longer has to sleep in the living room.

Emma Perry, from Maltby has von Hippel–Lindau syndrome, a genetic form of cancer which causes tumours to grow in one or more parts of the body.

As a result she needs oxygen and a ventilator at night.

Her family are hoping to raise £30,000 to build a downstairs bedroom and bathroom for Emma and free up the living room.

They've currently raised half the money towards paying for the extension.

A spokesperson for Rotherham Council said it is supporting the family and, if planning permission for the building work was granted, they may be eligible for grant funding to help cover the costs.

The owners of the estate in Oulton, near Rothwell, want to knock down the current houses and replace them with modern homes.

But residents say it amounts to "social cleansing" and have campaigned for their houses to stay despite the developers saying they need to be replaced.

However, at a planning meeting on Thursday no decision was made after the planning committee in Leeds said it wants more information into the design of the proposed new homes before reaching a conclusion.

Gemma's mother, Linda, says "lessons haven't been learned" following her daughter's death.

She says she didn't know the ride was still in operation.

"It should have been shut down permanently," she said.

"It’s about time the whole place was closed down."

“Our thoughts go out to this little boy and his family", Ms Savage says.

"It’s unbelievable that this has happened on the same ride, 18 years on. Why wasn’t the ride shut down?

"It’s incredibly distressing for us in the run up to the anniversary of Gemma’s death."
