A woman has reportedly died after falling out of a window while “taking a selfie.”

Toni Kelly was taking part in a teaching programme in London when she fell from a second-story window.

She died in hospital soon after the accident having suffered a brain injury.

Australian news sources report that the New Zealand woman was taking a photo of herself when the accident occurred but this has not yet been confirmed by police.

Toni’s friends and family have set up a fundraising page to raise money for her body to be flown home.

On the Give A Little page, they wrote that Toni was a “young, happy and beautiful girl.”

“Unfortunately Toni has sadly passed away due to her injuries. In her death Toni’s organs have been donated to help save other lives in the UK.

“This money will help the family bring Toni home and pay for any extra expenses. Any donation, big or small will be appreciated by all of her family and friends.

“Money will be used to help with all expense involved to bring her and her family back to New Zealand.”

The page has since received over $38,000 in donations.
