I didn’t say that Jools was “into every challenge possible”. I did say that he tried several of them. I’ve NEVER said I know why he died, only that it is my gut feeling it was a challenge. That’s why I want Jools’ data, because I don’t know. #JoolsLaw

Mum thinks son 'into every challenge' could have died in online dare gone wrong

Ellen Roome started campaigning for the legislation after the mystery death of 14-year-old son Jools in April 2022. She believes he died in an online dare that went wrong
