William and Kate return to Southport in support of knife attack victims
The Prince and Princess of Wales are back in Southport as part of an ongoing commitment to the victims of last summer's fatal knife attack.
The Prince and Princess of Wales are carrying out another royal visit in Southport to show their ongoing support for families and the community after last summer's fatal knife attack.
Alice da Silva Aguiar, aged nine, Bebe King, six, and Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, were murdered at a Taylor Swift themed dance class.
Eight other children and two adults were injured in the attack on 29th July 2024.
This is William and Kate's second visit to the town in the wake of the tragedy and subsequent widespread rioting.
The royal couple delivered hugs and sympathy after meeting the families of the three girls on a visit to the town last October, where they also praised and thanked emergency workers who responded to the attack.
The unannounced trip to Merseyside last year was William and Kate's first joint official outing since the princess's chemotherapy treatment ended.
