Sefton Council has asked for any remaining tributes to the victims of the Southport stabbing to be removed as residents are finding them 'emotionally challenging'.

The knife attack on July 29 at a Taylor Swift dance class left three children dead - six-year-old Bebe King, seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe and nine-year- old Alice Dasilva Aguiar.

Eight other children and two adults were injured in the incident. In the days after the attack, thousands of tributes, including teddy bears, flowers, ribbons and candles, were left at the scene on Hart Street and at other locations in the Merseyside town.
