The family of a young woman who died on Christmas Day after falling off a quad bike have paid touching tribute, saying she was ‘the most kind, caring and beautiful soul inside and out’.

Grace Vater, 22, is believed to have fallen off the bike which overturned in the Cotswolds village of Shipton Moyne, Gloucestershire, at around 2pm on Saturday afternoon.

She was taken by air ambulance to hospital where she died two days later.

Detectives have said a man is believed to have left the scene on a quad bike.

Two men from the Cotswolds, aged 29 and 30, were arrested in connection with the incident and have been bailed, pending further inquiries, until February.

In a tribute, Grace’s family said: ‘We as a family are totally devastated to have lost our beautiful darling Gracie.

‘A treasured and much loved daughter, sister, granddaughter and aunty.

‘She was the most kind, caring and beautiful soul inside and out, and would help anybody that needed her help. She was loved by everyone who met her.
