Seren's family say they are devastated by the loss of a "loving daughter, big and little sister"

The family of a teenage girl who died after a medical emergency at a rugby club have paid tribute to her.

Seren Jenkins, 14, was at Amman United Rugby Club in Carmarthenshire last Friday when emergency services were called.

Her family said they were "devastated" by the loss of Seren, from Tycroes, Ammanford, who they called "a loving daughter, big and little sister".

"Seren lived her short life to the full and was a budding artist, rugby player and social media lover," they said.

"Seren was loved by all who knew her and no doubt will also be remembered for her sense of humour," they added in a statement.

The family thanked everyone who has donated to a fundraiser for Seren, and those who have given "their kind words and support at this horrific time".

They said the money was likely to go to various asthma services, the Wales Air Ambulance, "and a possible memorial for her friends to remember her".
