Hundreds of mourners are expected to attend the funeral of tragic teenager Kiera Beagle who collapsed during a PE lesson almost two weeks ago.

Family and friends will gather at Calderhead Erskine Church at 11am in her hometown of Shotts, Lanarkshire. 

The schoolgirl died after she collapsed during a PE lesson at Calderhead High School on Thursday, May 26.

She was flown by air ambulance to the Royal Hospital for Children and was transferred to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital but she died a short time later.

Her death is being treated as 'unexplained'.

Last week thousands of friends, family members and school mates turned the sky purple by releasing balloons in memory of the teenager in the grounds of her highschool. 

Her heartbroken grandmother Elaine Black said: "Our family would like to pass on our thanks to everyone at the school, especially to the staff who gave our lovely Kiera a fighting chance."

A mass of floral tributes were left for the popular teen and many friends changed their Facebook profile pictures in her memory.
