Two young children have lost their parents, who were killed in a car crash in Cambridge at the weekend.

Nine-month-old Eli survived the crash but remains in Waikato Hospital.

On Saturday, police confirmed two people had died and one other person was seriously injured after a car and truck collided between Kaipaki Road and Matos Segedin Drive about 5.40pm.

In a Givealittle post , Pam Tomkins said her cousin Brenda and her partner Chris were the pair that died and that their baby was still in hospital.

"Riley, 11 years (Brenda's son from a previous relationship) fortunately wasn't in the vehicle however he too has lost his much loved Mum and step Dad," she wrote.

"All funds raised will go directly to a trust for the boys for their future support. Eli and Riley will be cared for by family."
