An online appeal in support of Connor's family has raised over £19,000 with former Sunderland star Jordan Henderson and ex-Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby both donating as well as city businesses.

A book of condolence has now been opened in the Tesco store at Roker for well-wishers to leave tributes.

A donation box has also been left next to the book.
