PC Kelly Stabb was diagnosed with Bowel cancer last year

Tributes are being paid to a popular Devon and Cornwall Police officer. 

Kelly Stabb was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer last year. 

Initially doctors thought her cancer was curable, but she was told in February this year it had spread. 

She went from running 1/2 marathons, to being unable to walk short distances. 

Kelly started trying to raise £200,000 for treatment that would prolong her life and give her more time with her young sons Jake and Luke. 

She stopped when she realised she wasn't well enough to receive the treatment. 

Police officers from all over the country have been paying tribute to her on twitter.
