On 29th July 2024, Southport suffered its darkest day when three young girls were killed in a knife attack. In this special episode of Behind The Headlines, we tell the story of a community wrapping its arms around each other and the spirit of togetherness which prevailed against all odds.

Thank you to our Southport-based contributors: Reverend Ben Dyer, Sarah McEntee, Paul Dunbavin and Cllr Greg Myers.
