‘Irreplaceable’ woman, 32, dies four days after car crashed into bridge
A heartbroken family has paid tribute after a young woman died four days after a crash in Wales.
Charlotte Beynon, 32, was passenger in a BMW which crashed into a bridge just outside Rhayader in Powys on December 3.
She was taken to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff but sadly died from her injuries four days later.
The 32-year-old from Burry Port worked as a project manager – and her family say she ‘touched the lives of many’.
They also thanked the emergency services and hospital staff for their efforts to try and save Charlotte’s life.
In a statement released through Dyfed Powys Police, they said: ‘As all the many tributes pouring in have said “words are never enough”, but now we must write words to honour our beautiful Charlotte who was tragically taken from us whilst in the prime of her life.
‘Charlotte was absolutely one of a kind, funny without realising it, totally beautiful both inside and out with a love of life, animals, friends, family, and work colleagues.
‘Charlotte was always on the go, and touched the lives of many. Tributes coming in have all described how she would breeze into a room with her big smile and make everything brighter and everyone feel better about themselves.
‘She was our Charlotte, but we were happy to share her as we thought we had many more beautiful years together.
‘Charlotte worked across the country as a busy project manager and had become a valued member of the team who she spoke about with fondness.
‘Charlotte was never still for long when she was not working, she was at her happiest when walking her dog in the countryside.
‘Charlotte also relished fun times out with friends, time with family, laughs with her niece and working on her house.
‘Charlotte was unique in so many ways and is utterly irreplaceable to her mother, late father, brother, niece, and other members of the family and valued friends.
‘We will miss Charlotte every second of our lives but are comforted by the knowledge that, after fighting a tough battle, she is now at peace with her late father who she cherished and missed every day.
‘We would like to give a big thank you to the emergency services at the scene including the air ambulance crew who all gave Charlotte a fighting chance, the incredible doctors and nurses looking after Charlotte in the Heath Hospital who did everything that they could to save our precious girl whilst also supporting us through this difficult time.
‘We would ask at this time that we are given time to come to terms with the news and our privacy is respected.’
Police are asking anyone who witnessed the crash or who may have information about the incident to get in touch.
