The mother of the late Archie Battersbee has accused social media platforms of failing to tackle harmful and dangerous content such as the trending challenge which killed her son.
Hollie Dance, 46, believes that there have been 82 deaths linked to the 'blackout challenge' alone, in which people choke themselves until they pass out. Many other unfortunate participants have also been left brain damaged after the trend first came to light 14 years ago.
Archie, just 12-years-old, spent more than four months in a coma after he was found with a ligature around his neck - and tragically passed away on August 6 when hospital staff withdrew life support.
