A mum who survived the Manchester Arena bombing five years ago completely turned her life round after the attack — and is now helping others do the same.
Julie Edwards, 49, went to the Ariana Grande concert with her now-14-year-old daughter Lily. She remembers the night all too well.
“Lily was so excited, she was only nine at the time and it was her first big concert,” she explained. “We parked at the arena and arrived early, taking our seats five or six steps down from the Concourse in the arena. Lily was absolutely loving it - singing and dancing to every song.
