NOTHING could have been done to save a woman who took fatal levels of MDMA at a music festival, an inquest heard.

Amy Vigus had been at a festival at the Olympic Park in London when she took Ecstasy.

She had accepted the drug from a man at the festival and after taking it, collapsed several times.

She collapsed again at home and her parents tried to resuscitate her.

Amy, 20, of Rudkin Road, Colchester, died at Colchester General Hospital on August 21 of a brain injury, after taking toxic amounts of the drug.

The former Gilberd School student’s inquest was held yesterday at Chelmsford Coroner’s Court.

Essex Coroner Caroline Beasley Murray recorded the death as an accident.

DI Gary Biddle, from Essex Police, confirmed it was a tragic outcome but there were no suspicious circumstances.

He said: “Amy had been to the Elrow Festival in Stratford on August 19 with three friends.

“They got there at about 2pm and shortly after Amy approached a man who gave her an MD Bomb.

“Friends reported her taking the drug. She appeared to be quite well and it wasn’t until later that she became unwell.

“He friends reported her collapsing and she was taken to a medical tent. She was conscious and was given a Vitamin C tablet and some water.”

He said she appeared well after this but collapsed again coming out of the festival, and again once she got home from Kelvedon Station.

Hospital reports said as there is no antidote to the drug, nothing could have been done to save her.

Her mum, Karen, said during the inquest: “We miss her so much”.

They wished to thank family, friends, and everyone who has supported them with raising funds for Colchester General Hospital’s intensive care unit.

Mrs Beasley Murray read out a statement her family had written, in which they say they want to make Amy proud.

It said: “She was always one for a challenge, she lived life to the full. She was beautiful, intelligent, honest, thoughtful and determined.

“She was a little whirlwind and would light up any room she went into.”

Mrs Beasley Murray said it was a tragic accident.

She said: “She went off in an excellent mood with her friends, and it ended like that.

“It is clear from seeing all the family here she was much loved.”

After her death, Amy’s family released a video called ‘Our Amy’, which told how Amy had become ill and died after taking drugs.

The moving and heartbreaking video was shared across the world and was viewed more than four million times.

The family also issued a warning about the effects of drugs and appealed to others not to make the same mistake.
