A paramedic who was one of the first people at the scene of the Southport knife attacks last summer has been honoured by the King alongside other NHS staff who assisted in the response to the tragedy.
Paul Smith, a senior paramedic team leader, treated victims at the scene where Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, nine, were murdered and 10 others injured at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class last July.
