The father of Southport attack victim Alice da Silva Aguiar has been “overwhelmed” by support after a London Marathon fundraiser for a commemorative playground approached £125,000.

Sergio Aguiar, whose nine-year-old daughter Alice was one of the three girls murdered in the Southport attack on July 29 last year, is helping raise £250,000 for a new playground at Churchtown Primary School, which Alice attended.
