The parents of a teenage boy have paid tribute to their 'bright and beautiful' son who was found dead in his bedroom.
Cayden Brown, 15, died suddenly on January 15 at his Blackburn home.
His parents Julie-Anne and David described Cayden as a caring person who loved helping people, reports LancsLive.
They are now urging young people and their parents to talk to each other and to ask for help if they need it.
In an emotional statement, Cayden's parents said: “On the 15th of January, Our beautiful 15-year old son Cayden passed away suddenly at his home.
“He was a pupil at St Bedes High School who was a very popular young boy and had many good friends around him.
“Outside school, he was a very active boy who was dedicated to skateboarding and music spending most of his time with friends mastering new tricks and perfecting music on his guitar.
"He was such a loving caring person who always jumped at the chance of helping others and took great pride doing so.
“A very bright and beautiful boy who loved his brother so much, they were inseparable.
"Our son will always live on in his brother and we will always remember his smiling face.”
Lancashire Police have confirmed there are no suspicious circumstances around Cayden’s death and a file has been passed to the coroner.
Cayden’s funeral will be held next week.
