The family of a pregnant nurse who died with Covid-19 have yet to receive any money from a fundraising campaign that names them as beneficiaries. Mary Agyapong, 28, died after giving birth in April 2020 at Luton and Dunstable Hospital, where she worked. A GoFundMe page set up by family friend Rhoda Asiedu has raised more than £186,000 and her lawyers said the money had been placed into a trust. Ms Agyapong's widower said he found it "surprising" he had not been involved. The money raised was paid to Ms Asiedu's legal team, Blue Trinity, who said it had been placed "on trust" for the education of Ms Agyapong's children and that 80% would be released when they turned 21. They said the remaining 20% would be provided to Ms Agyapong's widower Ernest Boateng for "maintenance and upkeep" of the children, however he had "failed to co-operate with the trustees to arrange a schedule of maintenance". But Blue Trinity has not responded to requests from Mr Boateng's legal team to see the trust documents.
