Family and friends gathered to pay tribute to a young carer who died after falling from a fire escape.
Katie Davenport fell from the two storey fire escape at Hey Amigos nightclub in Southport before being rushed to hospital where she died 13 days later. Tonight (September 22) friends, family and coworkers paid tribute to her as they released hundreds of green balloons in memory of the 23-year-old.
The memorial took place in Princes Park next to Brewers Fayre in Southport, where crowds release the balloons in what was an emotional moment for mourners. Speaking to the ECHO earlier this week, Katie's sisters Lianne and Cassie described her as "determined" and "caring" and told how she had plans to buy a home for her and her boyfriend.
