An inquest is set for December 8, 2025, at Oxford Coroner's Court to examine the death of Kirsten Dungan, a 42-year-old mother from Sonning Common, who died by suicide on Christmas Day, December 25, 2023. Her sister launched a fundraising campaign that raised £4,770—exceeding its £4,000 goal—to cover funeral costs and support mental health causes, aiming to show Dungan’s children how much they were loved. Dungan, a former beautician and devoted mother, was remembered as caring and passionate about horses, especially riding with her daughter. The inquest will review the circumstances surrounding her death.
