PARENTS of the toddler crushed under a falling lamppost have set up a charity in memory of their "smiley boy".

Kate and Chris Hollis, have created the Tommy Hollis Charitable Fund, with the aim of helping underprivileged, sick and orphaned children.

On the charity's website, the couple who live in Sutton Court Road, Chiswick, wrote: "Tommy was a happy, smiley boy who spread joy to everyone he met and we would like to do something in his honour to spread the joy he gave us.

"As parents now without a child, we would like to give loving care to children, in particular those without parents.

"We would also like to help bereaving parents who, like us, have lost a child."

Tommy Hollis was killed when a lamppost fell on him as he slept in his pram outside Chiswick Town hall on February 23. He died in hospital two days later, one day before his first birthday.

Two weeks ago nearly 300 people joined friends and family of Tommy at Christ Church in Turnham Green for a memorial service.

A joint investigation is being carried out by the Metropolitan Police's Homicide and Serious Crime unit, Hounslow police and the health and Safety Executive.

A road widening project was being carried out by Hounslow Council at the time of the incident.

Police have still not ruled out bringing a charge of corporate manslaughter against Hounslow Council.
