The mum of Alice da Silva Aguiar, one of three young girls killed in an attack on a dance class in Southport, has praised her local community in her first interview since her daughter was murdered.
Ms Liddle was one of two adults, along with class instructor Leanne Lucas, present at the dance class during the attack by Rudakubana.
Alice grew fond of having one of the teachers, Heidi Liddle, as her dance instructor and her mum said she was "fuming" when Ms Liddle went on maternity leave.
