A HERO mum who was killed in front of her two young children when a tree branch fell on her has been pictured for the first time.
Madia Kauser, who was named locally today, is said to have pushed her five-year-old daughter out of the way of the falling branch .
Madia was sadly killed while taking her daughter and son for an evening stroll near Witton Country Park in Blackburn , Lancashire on Monday.
The little girl was reportedly in a push chair that the brave mother managed to shove out of the way before being crushed by the falling branch.
Madia’s young daughter thankfully survived unharmed because of her mum’s noble actions.
Former mayor and local councillor Zamir Khan MBE, an uncle in the family, told the Daily Mail that her body was still with the coroner.
He added: “Her little girl told me her mother pushed her out of the way as the branch fell.
“The older boy was walking with his father in front and could not believe what happened .
“It is very hard for the children. I do not think they will ever walk in that park again.”
Madia’s husband was said to be just a few feet away with the couple’s son when the tragedy unfolded.
He rushed to offer aid to his wife but nothing could be done to save the woman.
She was sadly pronounced dead at the scene after paramedics battled to save her.
The remainder of the tree has since been removed by Blackburn with Darwen council, the local authority has also trimmed back nearby tree branches.
Tributes have begun to pour in for the hero mother who “would do anything for her children.”
Social media tributes have described the heroic mum as a “lovely person” with the local Muslim community coming together to remember her.
A gathering was held at Blackburn’s Madina mosque on Wednesday where condolences were offered for the tragic mum and her family.
Family members from across the country travelled to attend the gathering.
A local social media group hosted a message for the mum, reading: “Please keep this mother and her young children in your prayers.
“May Allah give them Sabrun Jameel. Condolences can be paid to the family at Madina Masjid on Oak St from 11am.”
The local authority said: “Blackburn with Darwen borough council is deeply saddened to confirm that a member of the public has tragically died following an incident in Witton Park, when a large tree branch fell .”
