Police have offered a £50,000 reward as a new appeal for information is launched over the murder of a schoolgirl in Greater Manchester 40 years ago.

Lisa Hession, 14, was sexually assaulted and strangled in an alleyway less than 200 metres from her home in Bonnywell Road, Leigh, after walking back from a party. Her mother, Christine, had expected her to return by 10.30pm and reported her missing 15 minutes later, according to Greater Manchester police (GMP).
