'We lost faith in the world,' says dance teacher who survived Southport attack

Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Bebe King, six, were killed in an attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class on 29 July, and 10 others were injured, eight of them children.

Axel Rudakubana, now 18, faces multiple charges including murder, attempted murder and terrorism charges, and is due to stand trial next year.

Speaking at a vigil for women and girls affected by male violence, Leanne Lucas, who was seriously injured as she tried to protect children during the attack, said the stabbing had left her "feeling like we just lost faith in the world".

She said: "It made us feel very unsafe. My purpose was creating wellbeing events for children and families, and for that to happen where I was, and for the words I spoke and the children spoke, for that to be trampled over has just really dampened all of our spirits, feeling unsafe, feeling like we just lost faith in the world really."
