Paying tribute to her Vicky’s family said: “Our lovely daughter Vicky Myres has been taken from us at the age of only 24, leaving her mum and dad, sister Rachael, brother Andrew, Grandad and Grandma, Sarah and Martin and especially partner, James, devastated.

“She had everything to live for and, together with james, has bought a house last year and just completed lands End to John O’Groats by bike – over 1000 miles within 12 days of cycling.

“Her life was perfect, she lived it to the full and, together with her devoted partner James, they were planning longer and more exotic trips.

“She had been a vegetarian for a while and more recently had become a vegan and enjoyed working as a florist.
