In Memory of Makyle, Eva, TJ & Daljang – Support Fund

In the early hours of Saturday, February 1st, four young lives were tragically lost in a devastating car accident on Magdalen Street, Colchester. Makyle Bayley (22), Eva Darold-Tchikaya (21), Anthony Hibbert (24), and Daljang Wol (22) were all students at the University of Essex, known and loved by their friends, teammates, and the wider university community.

This heartbreaking loss has left their families facing not only unimaginable grief but also the heavy financial burden of arranging funerals and memorial services. This fundraiser has been set up to support all four families, helping to cover funeral expenses and provide some relief during this incredibly painful time.

TJ (Anthony Hibbert) and Daljang Wol were outstanding members of the Essex Rebels men's basketball team, Makyle Bayley played for the British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS) basketball team, and Eva Darold-Tchikaya was a dedicated member of the Essex Blades Dance Club and other university societies. They were deeply involved in student life and touched the lives of many.

We know that no amount of money can take away the pain of this tragedy, but we hope to lighten the financial strain on their families as they navigate the difficult days ahead. All funds raised will be split equally between the four families to assist with funeral costs and memorial arrangements.

If you can contribute, no matter how small, it would mean the world to those who have lost loved ones. Please also consider sharing this fundraiser to help reach as many people as possible.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

All funds raised will be sent to Bilal Sanusi Mohammed from Argyle Kings, who will distribute the funds to the affected families. We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support and generosity shown during this difficult time—thank you to everyone who has contributed and shared this fundraiser.
