00:00This community has come together so wonderfully, it's so kind, you can feel the love, you

00:11can feel the love, you really can, and look on the pavements for the prayers and everything.

00:19As I say, it's just so wonderful to see the love from people, and there is a lot of love

00:26in the world still.

00:30We've never witnessed anything like this before, I mean, I know we have in Liverpool, but Southport's

00:45a very quiet town, so it's just heartbreaking for everyone.

00:50It's really sad, because they've just had their whole life ahead of them, and they're

00:55only little, and they haven't even finished school, or they're going to a dance class

01:02and then just never coming home, it's really sad.

01:04Just very emotional, I'm just heartbroken to see all this, and just as a town, I'm happy

01:18that everyone's come together to show respect for the ones that have passed away.

01:35Because of the things that have happened afterwards, it's not just been the one thing, it's been

01:39a couple of different things that have happened this week, including the riots, but my anxiety

01:44is through the roof with it, to be honest.

01:48I think also because of him, I think if I didn't have him, I wouldn't be as frightened

01:52to go out, but I just want to keep him safe, and I just don't feel safe at the minute with

01:57everything that's going on, and all the threats of riots all the time, all over the country,

02:03it's scary, I think.
