There were two cars on the A53 near Shrewsbury when Charlotte Hope’s Volkswagen Polo collided with a BMW at about 16:15 BST on April 9. She was not hurt.

“Wonderful” and “compassionate” are words her father used to describe her. A trainee teacher who died in a crash has been called “wonderful” by her father.

Also, her mother is in the hospital, where she is “recovering physically,” Neil Hope said.

He said his daughter always put others “before herself”.

The 19-year-old had worked for a Kenyan charity called Restart, which helps abandoned children found on the street.

It said she “left a positive impression on everyone she met” and inspired “young people in Shropshire”.

The former student of Shawbury’s Thomas Adams School was in her second year of training to become a primary school teacher at Edge Hill University when she was killed.

“All she wanted to do was be a primary school teacher,” her father, Wing Cdr Neil Hope, told the story.

“That is all she ever wanted to do and be in Kenya, so she could continue to volunteer.”

“She was everything you would want from a daughter,” he told the Shropshire Star.

“She just cared for others to the point where at times it frustrated me. She would put people before herself, it was just the way she was,” he added.

During a Restart event in February 2022, the 19-year-old helped distribute donated football kits to schools and charities as part of an RAF campaign called “Taking Football to Africa and beyond.”

By her father, he set up the appeal. It went through the RAF Football Association and RAF Shawbury.

Miss Hope was also a member of the Shropshire Football Association’s Youth Council a volunteer. She helped “develop a lasting legacy in football in Shropshire,” the group said.

In connection with the crash, a man who was 33 years old was arrested. He has now been released on police bail, but he still faces charges.
