Mr Karim’s mother, Joan Plant, used Facebook to invite all his friends and family to attend the service, which she said would be a ‘day to remember in all our hearts’.

She had earlier said: “Our hearts are shredded. Rest in beautiful heaven, my child.”

Mr Karim’s sister, Ciara, described him as her ‘best friend, my big brother’, and added: “I love you more than you could ever know.”

The air ambulance was called out to help Mr Karim, the Evening Standard reported, but he died at the scene.
